The guilty undertaker sighs
The lonesome organ grinder cries
The silver saxophones say i should
Refuse you
The cracked bells an' washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn
But it's not that way, i wasn't born 
To lose you.
I want you, i want you
I want you so bad
Honey i want you.

The drunken politician leaps
Upon the street where mothers weep
An' the saviors who are fast asleep
They wait for you
An' i wait for them to interrupt
Me drinkin' from my broken cup
An' ask me to open up
The gate for you.
I want you, i want you
I want you so bad
Honey i want you.

Now, all my fathers they've all gone
True love they've been without it
But all their daughters put me down
'Cause i dont think about it.

Well, i return to the queen of spades
An' talk with my chamber maid
She knows that i'm/she's not afraid to look at her
She is good to me
An' there's nothin she doesn't see
She knows where i'd like to be
But it doesn't matter.
I want you, i want you
Yes i want you so bad
Honey i want you.

Now your dancin' child with his chinese suit
He spoke to me, i took his flute
No, i wasn't very cute to him
Was i?
But i did it because he lied
Because he took you for a ride
Because time was on his side
An' because i
Want you, i want you
Yes i want you so bad
Honey i want you.
