Turkish Delight

歌詞

Eye eye eye eye And the first wife told her tale Abdullah had a little lamb he swapped it for a camel He didn't like its color so he daubed it with enamel The hot sun melted all the paint while crossing the Sahara He can't get off because the paint is stuck to his tarara Eye eye eye eye And the next wife told her tale A young commercial traveller came through Baghdad one day He climbed upon the palace gates to watch the girls at play He promised he'd be good, but when the maiden girls appeared He got so agitated, he fell down and broke his word Eye eye eye eye And the next wife told her tale Once there were two plumbers and they left behind their tools They always had to do it, it was in the union rules One fell into the cistern and when his mates returned It took two years to get him out, what overtime he earned Eye eye eye eye And the next wife told her tale Aladdin loved a princess whom they called Belle Troubadour Although Aladdin loved her, she loved Aladdin more She'd open up the palace gates to let her drunken dad in And who could blame her, if by chance, she sometimes let a lad in." Eye eye eye eye And the next wife told her tale Once there were two dancing girls who danced about in gauze And as they are to dancing, they hadn't any flaws The chief of p'lice arrested them for showing too much zeal He didn't mind the upper deck but he couldn't stand the keel Eye eye eye eye And the next wife sold her tail
