Le Jazz Et Le Gin

I want jazz and gin
Let my sorrows fade away
I want slow and swing
Pong and ping

I want substance, form
And show-off
I want the vertigo
Of the abyss
And the biggest limousine
Dancers in thongs

I want snobs
And I want has-beens
A grenadine manhattan
I want the ocean, the pool
The yang and the yin

Because it's you
Because it's me
I want everything
And anything
Jazz and in, the gin is there
And the beef is on the roof

I want laughter and sorrow
The rare pearl and the refrain
Rosewood and ebony
The joker and the queen

I want something flashy and
I want tiaras
To be the only one in your harem
The variation and the theme
The theorem

I want there
And I want right here
I want nothing, the supreme
I want the opposite and the same
The other and the same

Because it's you
Because it's me
I want everything
And anything
Jazz and in, the gin is there
And the beef is on the roof
