Let our love be a flame, not an ember, Say it’s me that you want to dismember. Blacken my eye, Set fire to my tie, As we dance to the Masochism Tango. At your command Before you here I stand, My heart is in my hand. Ecch! ---

I work at the Palace ballroom, but gee that palace is cheap When I get back to my chillly hallroom, I’m much too tired to sleep I’m one of those lady teachers, a beautiful hostess you know; One that the palace features, at exactly a dime a throw. Ten cents a dance, that’s what they pay me Gosh how they weigh me down. Ten cents a dance, pansies and rough guys, tough guys who tear my gown. Seven to midnight I hear drums, loudly the saxophone blows, Trumpets are tearing my ear-drums, customers crush my toes. Sometimes I think, I’ve found my hero But it’s a queer romance; All that you need is a ticket, Come on big boy, ten cents a dance. ---

Everyone who’s anyone has gathered at the palace, Even though for some of us it’s really quite a ride. ---

Oh Lord, it’s hard to be humble When you’re perfect in every way. I can’t wait to look in the mirror, Cause I get better looking each day. To know me is to love me. I must be a hell of a man! Oh Lord, it’s hard to be humble- But I’m doing the best that I can. ---

She’s a maniac, maniac on the floor And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before She’s a maniac, maniac on the floor And she’s dancing like she’s never danced before On the ice-build iron sanity is a place most never see It’s a hard warm place of mystery, touch it, but can’t hold it You work all your life for that moment in time, it could come or pass you by It’s a push of the world, but there’s always a chance If the hunger stays the night ---

Dance me to your beauty like a burning violin Dance me through the panic 'til I’m gathered safely in Lift me like an olive branch, be my homeward dove And dance me to the end of love Please dance me to the end of love Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone Oh let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon Oh show me slowly what I only know the limits of And dance me to the end of love Please dance me to the end of love ---
