Lyrics

There was moonlight and laughter That danced on the sands And bloodstained pianos Are played without hands Such a promising music Sweet whispers and dreams From a travelling window The salesman who screamed Moonlight, saturday night It's now or never Oh play stormy weather For me, for me I lived in the flower shop Called "love is so sweet!" And I get all my kicks From the customers' feet Well, I'm just a stranger None stranger than I My head in the quicksand My feet in the sky I was carefully crazy When playing the game 'cause business is business And I'm not to blame Climb on my back It's a wet afternoon; A bottle of booze A bit of a tune to sing; Goodbye, everything; Goodbye, everything....
