I got an appointment to keep, for seven nights I couldn´t sleep
I´m in a state of disbelief
It´s my big chance on magic street

I followed this fashion doll down the famous hall
"Ginger won´t be long at all" She said "Take a number
You´ll be called."

I said "I´m gonna show him what I can do now its just between
us two." In the grand tradition...Private audition

(Wish I knew then what I know now)

I don´t know what I did wrong, I thought I really laid it on
When he called out for some more, I gave him my standard encore

I gave him the Swanee River, and the good ship Rockin´ Rye
The Stars and Stripes Forever, and good ol´ Pal O´ Mine
But that ain´t what he was on about
He was casting for his couch

[Ahem]
He said, "Come on baby, show me what you can do,
Now it´s just between us two.
In the great tradition...Private audition
