Bitten by the tailfly

You´re a girl in this vicinity
I´m a dog without a collar on
This cattle-market cabaret
Is the Sabbath every Saturday
I´m full of wit and chivalry
Until you´ve given in to me
I´m a dog without a collar on
You´re a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
It´s a silent taxi ride away
But it´s everything to get you there
You´ll know when you are bitten-shy
But still you will return my stare
From a crush of blushing brides-to-be
You barely have a blossom on
Your eyes betray your diaries
You´re a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
I´ll take you home
Get you on your own
I´m a dog without a collar on
This cattle-market cabaret
Is the Sabbath every Saturday
I´m full of wit and chivalry
Until you´ve given in to me
I´m a dog without a collar on
You´re a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
It´s a silent taxi ride away
But it´s everything to get you there
You´ll know when you are bitten-shy
But still you will return my stare
From a crush of blushing brides-to-be
You barely have a blossom on
Your eyes betray your diaries
You´re a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
I´ll take you home
Get you on your own
