Midnight confessions
Of deputy Prussians
Coloured my time in the Rhine
Where a misplaced directive
From a dirty connector
I got out just in time
Fleet of foot messengers
Tapped me in Bucharest
And paid for a train to Berlin
Where a night club at midnight
Was cleared out too quickly
I made my face in the wings
The palace ain't nothing
Compared to this majesty
Here I am dancin'
For the president of Germany
I opened up with a
Rag and a one-step and
Finished the bit with a freeze
Then a touch of the shuffle and
I closed with a soft-shoe
I hit 'em with my best routine
The palace ain't nothing
Compared to this majesty
Here I am dancin' for
The president of Germany
The orpheum never saw
A bigger hit in two a day
The national can't beat this state
Oooooh, oooooh
Don't fade out
You're my only hope and it's running out
The spotlight it shone on heavy artillery
The silence was worse than the shot
I'm just a dancer, an innocent fiction
More like a dream than not
Applause cascading from one set of fingertips
You believe what you believe
You believe what you believe
You believe what you believe
You believe what you believe
Midnight confessions
Of deputy Prussians
I got out just in time
