What me worry 
I never do 
I'm always amused and amusing you 
Sans le fear of impending doom 
Life is like banquet food 
Pleasure to peruse 

Do I amuse you, dear 
Would you think me queer 
If while standing beside you 
I opted instead to 
Disappear, disappear 

In no hurry I'll sing my tune 
All my skies the hue of a ruddy bruise 
In my finest threads couture 
I'll call up my favorite muse 
For a drink - half full - or two 

Have I abused you, dear 
You have had it to here 
You say, "Love is just a bloodmatch 
To see who endures lash after lash with panache" 

In the spring I'll dust off my lute 
Stuff my suitcase full of blues 
And I stir the dust underneath the thrust 
Of my clicking heels 
C'est la vie 

What me worry 
I never do 
Life is one charming ruse 
For us lucky few 

Have I fooled you, dear 
The time is coming near 
When I'll give you my hand and I'll say 
"It's been grand, but I'm out of here 
I'm out of here"
