The Tiger Lillies - Don't Mean a Thing lyrics
[The Tiger Lillies - Don't Mean a Thing lyrics]
Is just a word when you smile at me it seems
So absurd
You’re so full of ambition pride and desire
If I told you it’s all meaningless
Would you call me a liar
And it don’t mean a thing
Record company mogul queuing in your room
Makes you so excited it makes you swoon
You trip the light fantastic
And think you are the Queen
Then somebody tells you
That you can’t even sing
And it don’t mean a thing
I’ll miss you like a matchbox
That’s gone off in my face
Lost your marbles long ago
Now you’re off in space
The prison wardens ghetto blaster
Is making quite a noise
Well the day you lost everything
You lost your equipoise
And it don’t mean a thing
And it don’t mean a thing
