lirik lagu jerome moross & john la touche - circe
[hector]
on the wrong side of the tracks
where the city’s white lights turn red
lives a lady known as circe
who fills honest folks with dread
oh the magic she can spin
makes a shiver run up your spine
she turns water into gin
and she turns men into swine
[people of the night]
circe, circe
the woman without mercy
circe turns men into swine
[hector]
she’s the city when it’s evil
in her veins flows rock and rye
you had better hide in a doorway
when you see her passing by
she’s got flamе~colored hair
shiny eyes likе two full moons
and her laughter’s like the echo
of the honky~tonk saloons
[circe]
i was born exactly at midnight
and i grew up by half~past two
if i move too fast for comfort
maybe i’ll slow down for you
from sundown to sunrise
all the city belongs to me
i take a street that’s mean and dingy
make it glitter like a christmas tree
[people of the night]
circe, circe
the woman without mercy
circe turns men into swine
[hector]
oh, they’re gonna try to ruin you
oh, they’ll try to drag you down
but, boy, with that gal beside you
you can rule this doggone town
[achilles]
if you’re gonna care for circe
then you’d better trim your sails
’cause she’s gonna scratch your heart out
with her long red fingernails
[ulysses]
it’s much wiser to be heartless
for a heart is a hazard, i learn
if i give you mine, madame circe
what do i get in return?
[circe]
there are just two kinds of people
those who follow and those who lead
i will make you so cold and clever
you’ll be certain to succeed
[people of the night]
circe, circe
the woman without mercy
circe turns men into swine
[hector]
paris!
this is all your doing
’cause you went wooing
you brought that fool in
and now he’s ruling
but we all hate him
so liquidate him
and circe will love you
[ulysses]
love will last for an hour
be it false or be it true
but what can you give me
that will last my whole life through?
[circe]
love will last for an hour
be it weak or be it strong
but i will give you power
that will last you all life long
[people of the night]
circe, circe
the woman without mercy
circe turns men into swine
[achilles]
ulysses!
[hector]
it’s been grand, really grand
to have known you
and all of your wonderful crew
but you’ve lost the friends you’ve known
and at last you’re on your own
and it’s certain to be curtains for you too
