And if one day I should become[00:00:09]
A singer with a Spanish bum[00:00:10]
Who sings for women of great virtue[00:00:12]
I'd sing to them with a guitar[00:00:16]
I borrowed from a coffee bar[00:00:18]
Well what you don't know doesn't hurt you[00:00:19]
My name would be Antonio[00:00:23]
And all my bridges I would burn[00:00:25]
And when I gave them some they'd know[00:00:27]
I'd expect something in return[00:00:29]
I'd have to get drunk every night[00:00:34]
And talk about virility[00:00:36]
With some old grandmama[00:00:38]
Who might be decked out like a christmas tree[00:00:39]
And though pink elephants I'd see though I'd be drunk[00:00:45]
As I could be still I would sing my song to me[00:00:47]
About the time they called me Jacky[00:00:50]
If I could be for only an hour[00:00:53]
If I could be for an hour every day[00:00:56]
If I could be for just one little hour[00:01:00]
A cute cute in a stupid ass way[00:01:03]
And if I joined the social whirl[00:01:10]
Became procurer of young girls[00:01:12]
Then I would have my own bordellos[00:01:14]
My record would be number one[00:01:17]
And I'd sell records by the ton[00:01:19]
All sung by many other fellows[00:01:21]
My name would then be handsome Jack[00:01:24]
And I'd sell boats of opium whisky[00:01:26]
That came from twickenham authentic queers and phony virgins[00:01:28]
If I had banks on every finger a finger in every country[00:01:35]
And every country ruled by me[00:01:38]
I'd still know where I'd want to be[00:01:40]
Locked up inside my opium den[00:01:46]
Surrounded by some China men[00:01:48]
I'd sing the song that I sang then[00:01:49]
About the time they called me Jacky[00:01:51]
If I could be for only an hour[00:01:54]
If I could be for an hour every day[00:01:57]
If I could be for just one little hour[00:02:01]
A cute cute in a stupid ass way[00:02:05]
Now tell me wouldn't it be nice[00:02:11]
That if one day in paradise[00:02:13]
I'd sing for all the ladies up there[00:02:15]
And they would sing along with me[00:02:18]
And we be so happy there to be[00:02:20]
'Cos down below is really nowhere[00:02:22]
And if my name would Dieu le Père[00:02:25]
Then I would know where I was going[00:02:27]
And then I would become all knowing[00:02:29]
My beard so very long and flowing[00:02:31]
If I became deaf dumb and blind[00:02:36]
Because I pitied all mankind[00:02:38]
And broke my heart to make things right[00:02:40]
I know that every single night[00:02:42]
When my angelic work was through[00:02:47]
The angels and the devil too[00:02:49]
Would sing my childhood song to me[00:02:51]
About the time they called me Jacky[00:02:53]
If I could be for only an hour[00:02:55]
If I could be for an hour every day[00:02:59]
If I could be for just one little hour[00:03:03]
A cute cute in a stupid ass way[00:03:06]
