lyrics

the poon tango dean music mint bmi

in the city of lights
in a small cafe
miguel and pierre
slowly wasted away

they could curse the madam
but she was not concerned
as far she cared
they could both wait their turn

so they waited
and waited
for their chance

a crew of drunk argentines
had commandeered all the beds
and the lovely french flowers
that worked overhead

so pierre and miguel
drifted deep in their wine
they drank and they laughed
as they passed the time

they were drinking
and laughing
and singing
then they started to dance

poon tango, poon tango
they tripped to the tango
they danced while they waited to play
poon tango, the tango
for strange tango bango,
mons venus di mango, they'd pay,
they’d pay and pay and pay
for some poontango

just before the new dawn
the sailors fell down the stairs
and spied miguel and pierre
passed out unawares

the argentines rolled them
and they robbed them
and left with their pants

what a waste
for just a taste
a taste of the mango
mons venus di mango
