To your common sense firm arguments I won't listen to your voice of 

reason
trying to change my mind. I mind my feelings and not your words.
Didn't you
notice I'm so headstrong even when I know I'm wrong? Take this to your
heart
and into your head now: before you waste your time, call a truce and
call a
draw.
What's the use in mapping your views out in orderly form when it does
nothing but confuse and anger me more? I mind my feelings and not your
words.
Didn't you notice I'm so headstrong. You're talking to a deaf stone
wall.
Take this to your heart and into your head now: the old wives' tale is
true,
I'll repeat it. All is fair in love and war, that's how the famous
saying goes.
Open up your eyes, see me for what I am: cast in iron, I won't break
and I
won't bend. Take this to your heart and into your head now: the old
wvies'
tale is true, I'll repeat it. All is fair in love and war, that's how
the
famous saying goes.
If I told you we were out to sea in a bottomless boat, you'd try
anything to
save us, you'd try anything to keep us afloat. And if we were living
in a
house afire, I don't believe that you could rush out and escape it and
not
rescue me. Take this to your heart and into your head now: the old
wives' tale
is true, I'll repeat it. All is fair in love and war, that's how the
famous
saying goes. Listen, I think they were talking to you.


Shards of glass cut through my gaze 

broken streamers hanging at my legs
drunk and giddy full of fate
at the cabaret
smokey stares from the bar
do stray bottles tumble
I feel the misty spray
what a perfect, perfect day for the cabaret
from afar he sees
Venus rise overwhelmingly beautiful
he sighs the look of love was in her eyes
puts his hand upon her leg
looking closer his lust begins to fade
what a drag the queen did say.
could this be a dream I’m in? ( Fellini would be proud )
gluttony enfolds the scene
give them one last round ,
shining faces dance away
swinging skirts between the panted legs
kaleidescoping
then shassez in a blink the glasses fly
suddenly joy becomes a fight
there they tossed and turned a sight.
