SOL MIm DO SOL
You're sending me tulips, mistaken for lilies,
SOL MIm FA RE
You give me your lip after punching me silly,
SOL MIm DO SOL
You turned my head till it rolled down the brain drain,
SOL MIm FA RE
If I had any sense now, I wouldn't want it back again.
SOL SIb LAm SOL
New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
SOL MIm DO SOL
Down on the mainspring, listen to the tick tock,
SOL MIm FA RE
Clock all the faces that move in on your block,
SOL MIm DO SOL
Twice shy and dog tired because you've been bitten,
SOL MIm FA RE
Everything you say now sounds like it was ghost written.
SOL SIb LAm SOL
New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
MI MI LA MI
Like, in London, they'll take you to heart after a little while,
MI MI DO RE DO SOL RE
Though I look right at home, I still feel like an exile.
SOL MIm DO SOL
Somehow I found myself down at the dockside,
SOL MIm FA RE
Thinking about the old days of Liverpool and Rotherhithe,
SOL MIm DO SOL
Transparent people who live on the other side,
SOL MIm FA RE
Living a life that is almost like suicide,
SOL SIb LAm SOL
New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
SOL SIb LAm SOL
Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
