Salome Maloney (Album Version) - John Cooper Clarke[00:00:00]

Written by：John Cooper Clarke [00:00:00]

I was walking down Oxford Road[00:00:00]

Dressed in what they call the mode[00:00:03]

I could hear them spinning all their smash hits[00:00:05]

At the mecca of the modern dance the Ritz[00:00:08]

My feet foxtrotted[00:00:11]

My shoulders did the shimmy[00:00:13]

The bouncer on the door said a gimme gimme gimme[00:00:15]

I gave 'em the tickets they gave me the shits[00:00:18]

No healthy arguments in the Ritz[00:00:21]

Standing by the cig' machine who did I see[00:00:24]

In lurex and terylene she hypnotised me[00:00:27]

I asked her name she said it's[00:00:30]

Salome Maloney queen of the Ritz[00:00:33]

Lacquered in a beehive[00:00:36]

Her barnet didn't budge[00:00:37]

Wet look lips she smiled as sweet as fudge[00:00:39]

She had a number on her back[00:00:42]

And sequins on her tits[00:00:44]

The sartorial requirements[00:00:45]

For females in the Ritz[00:00:47]

A man making like Fred Astaire[00:00:49]

Complete with spats and tails[00:00:50]

A Douglas Fairbanks moustache[00:00:52]

Dirty fingernails[00:00:54]

Whose snide innuendo was as subtle as the blitz[00:00:56]

Waltzed off with Salome in his greasy little mitts[00:00:59]

Standing in the dandruff light[00:01:02]

Trying to get pissed[00:01:04]

Amongst the headlice old spice Brut and body mist[00:01:05]

How can she be seen dead[00:01:09]

Dancing with that tit[00:01:10]

Her being Salome el supremo of the Ritz[00:01:12]

Tables flew bottles broke[00:01:16]

The bouncers shouted lumber[00:01:17]

The dummy got too chummy[00:01:19]

In a Bing Crosby number[00:01:20]

The bouncers said it's suicide[00:01:22]

Trying to get your mitts[00:01:25]

On Salome Maloney the queen of the Ritz[00:01:26]

When the ambulances came[00:01:29]

She was lying on the deck[00:01:30]

She'd fell off her stiletto heels[00:01:32]

And broke her f**king neck[00:01:34]

The band threw down their instruments[00:01:36]

The management threw fits[00:01:37]

She's dead she don't bring the business to the Ritz[00:01:39]

The over twenty-ones night said it was a shame[00:01:42]

The divorcee club will never be the same[00:01:45]

Joe loss killed himself and Vic Sylvester quit[00:01:49]

When the death dance drama did away with the Ritz[00:01:52]

When the last waltz withered[00:01:55]

And the quickstep stopped[00:01:57]

The ladies' excuse me was permanently blocked[00:01:58]

And now mecca make a living[00:02:02]

Selling little bits[00:02:03]

Of Salome Maloney[00:02:04]

In the wreckage of the Ritz[00:02:06]
