Do the Dangle

He moves fast, so jet set Go glamour globetrotting, having amorous affairs cosmopolitan Carrying no emotional baggage of regret, no tear-stained cloth spotting Lonely hearts do get winsome wet when it rain Make a friendly club bet, pickup the carry-out before ten No placebo pills will ease their morning sickness pain Last night, they did the horizontal tango, tops off, bottoms down Lights off, passion on when you do the dangle Oh, the boudoir things the body learn when it starts moving slow Eyes open wide when low the candle burn Anticipation in the air leaves them lustily hanging, hope of real love is a rewind silver screen reel Wedding bell chime dreams are midnight dangling Mistress in Madrid, lover in Lisbon A wife in each Americas, heartbreaker born to run Jet set stony smiles never do tell, and thrusting tongues never wanna know Sunken cruise ships will never again sail Pining hearts sadly waiting at the window, wondering when is true love coming in As a jet set breeze in and out the door blow Mistress in Mumbai, lovers in Lusaka and Luanda A wife in every continent, heartbreaker born to run Every night, enticing eyes erotic dance another tangle, vertical promises made, horizontal hearts broken No runway lights on when takeoff fantasies do the dangle
