The Jazz Passengers: Individually Twisted

Don't need no palace paved with gold.
Don't need more cash than banks could hold.

Whenever i get the feeling.
.
My sweet l'il darlin' gives me his love.

Don't catch me chasing round at night.i'm not impressed by glamorous sights.

L'il darlin' is obvious pretty.
So many guys you may see.
But my little darlin' only loves me.

I know he only loves me.
Yes, he loves me.
I know.
I know he loves me.

Oh yes, i know my man's in love with me.
Something, something tells me constantly.
Oh i'll never be the object of all men's eyes.
Or win no beauty prize.
It's me, and me alone he can see.
He likes to stay home in the evening.
Most people tell me he's rare.
As long as he loves me, i don't care, i don't care, i don't care.
I mean what i say when i say it...

Don't catch me chasing round at night.i'm not impressed by glamorous sights, no no no.

L'il darlin' is obvious pretty.
So many guys you may see.
But my little darlin' only loves me.
My little darlin' only loves me.
My little darlin' only loves me.
He loves only me.

Here's an idea that i have been brewing.
We all feel like ruins, so whatta ya say?
I've got these four wheels and who could want for more wheels?
Just throw in a suitcase.
We're off and away.
Let's drive south, way past the border, raise our passports high there.

Mexico will light our load.
Our spirits, they will fly there.
Don't say "oh haha" 'til you feel the baja.
The people are kind there, i know you will agree.
Frida carlo and katie gerado are two of my favorites.
They always have been.
Come with me to guadalejara.
Stop off at chiuaua.
Tiny dogs will greet us there.
We'll sit and yap for hours.

I'm just a vulture for old mayan culture, or reefs you can snorkle.
No bullfights for me.
Late in the morning, we'll catch a fiesta in time for siesta again.

Vera cruz will ease our blues then off up to durango.
I'm really partial to shellfish and mangoes and fresh cut celantro.
I know that you can go!
We'll try the flamenco.
Hey senor, don't be a bore.
This sadness you're bearing, it's wearing you down.
When you unravel, there's nothing like travel so pick up the pieces.
Take it from me.
All at once, your life is over for your very eyes.

So whatta ya say?
I say ole.
Ole.
Que padre?
Ole!
I say ole ole ole ole ole ole ole.
I say ole.

I must confess that what you say is true.
You had a rendezvous with somebody new!
It's the only one i've ever had.
Baby, baby doncha go 'way mad.

The cheating shows and it never goes.
You've got a reason to be mad, i suppose.
She was only just a passing fad.
Baby, baby doncha go 'way mad.

Her kind's a dime a dozen.
That's not the kind you want.
Who would have thought your cousin would wander into that restaurant?

Well, you understand that i feel upset.
Whatd ya say that we forgive and forget?
Come and kiss me just to prove you're glad.
Baby, baby doncha go 'way mad.

Now her kind is a dime a dozen.
You should have passed her by.
Who would have thought your cousin would come along and give us the eye?

Well, you understand that i feel upset.
Whatd ya say that we forgive and forget?
Come and kiss me just to prove you're glad.
Oh, i don't know.
Baby, baby doncha go 'way mad.
Come and kiss me just to prove you're glad.
Oh, oh.
Baby, baby doncha go 'way mad.
Come and kiss me just to prove you're glad.
Deborah darlin' doncha go 'way mad.
Baby baby baby...

Uh, roy?
Yes deutch?
It's about my hats.
What about them? i mean, they bring something out in me. i...
I don't want that something, i want my hats back.
Why just... we're supposed to be friends... people who like each other want to see each other's lives enriched in some way...
You were seen last night in a restaurant havingdinnerwith one of my hats.
It's a small thing.

You know...
When i say you're a pork chop you best believe you're a pork chop.
P-o-r-k
C-h-o-p.

When a fella comes a callin' and you're waiting there til morning...
He's a pork chop.
Pork chop.

When he's whistlin his romances, and he's making other glances...
He's a pork chop.
Pork chop.

He's a running and a dancing while he paints the town a special blue.
Teaching roller skating to the missing farm, that's the way he do.

So i care about things.

He can play mysterioso and everybody knows so.
He's a pork chop.
Pork chop.

Gonna leave me at the altar reading comic books by faulkner.
He's a pork chop.
Pork chop.

He's dragging his ass round, promises he said he'd do
And i knew
He'd be ringin me this evening so suprised to hear me screaming "you're a pork chop!
Pork chop!"
I take issue.

You should try faulkner.
I should what!?
Try faulkner.
...soundsdirty.

Look. the thing is this: i am a doer.
Huh!
There are doers and there are don'ters.
Yes, yes...
I may not be there for you, but i am doing things.
Yes... uh huh...
That's a responsible person, a caring person, not what you say, a jambone de pork, whatever..
Wha... wait a second. just wait a second...
*muffled argument*

I try to tell my feelings, and he's looking at the ceiling.
He's a pork chop.
Pork chop.

On and on about abuses, and he's sitting being useless.
He's a pork chop.
(that's for sure!)

He's dragging his ass round, promises he said he'd do
And i knew
He'd be ringin me this evening so suprised to hear me screaming "you're a pork chop!
Pork chop!"

I am suprised! i don't know why...
*more obscured arguing to end*

(instrumental)

This is an imitation of a kiss.
An imitation's all it is and when i kiss you, it may look like a kiss.
Call it a kiss, this imitation of love.

It's an imitation of romance.
All hollow gestures and demands.
You get agressive.

So tired of routines, you go to extremes.
This imitation of romance.

There's a place i used to go, it's closed down long ago.
I'd lie down there in your darkness watching rivers flow.

Now it's an imitation of love.
No one's fooling no one.
And though you're here now, i'm so far away.
Let's call it a day.
This imitation of a kiss.

When it looks like all is lost here something reappears.
All my reasons leave the room now, leaving you still here.

This is an imitation of goodbye.
I say it's over all the time, yet i'm still with you.
Don't know why it is i can't resist this imitation of a kiss.
