Humming Lyrics > Carnival

Rosalie:

Here’s to the son of a B
Tra la
For what he’s doing to me
Tra la
Draining the blood from each vein

Schlegel:

Heh heh

Rosalie:

Torture and anguish and pain

Schlegel:

Heh heh

Rosalie:

Why don’t I have any brains?
Ah ha

Both:

Here’s to the son of a B

Rosalie:

He’ll be humming
When I walk into that trailer
He’ll be humming
He’ll grin a little grin
Force a little laughter
Nonchalant and casual as a bride the morning after
My innocent my saint my darling baby boy
Batting his eyelashes like an aging Fauntleroy

Schlegel:

Here’s to the miserable dog

Rosalie:

Tra la

Schlegel:

And to his raven black curls

Rosalie:

Tra la
I only live for the day
Tra la
His hair will be thinning and grey
Or better than that
A toupee

Both:

Ha ha
Here’s to the miserable dog

Rosalie:

He is humming
I know what he’s doing now
He’s humming
Striking matches in the air to get rid of her perfume
Smoothing pillows, cleaning ashtrays, looking all around the room
Did she spill a little powder
Did she lose one of her combs
Gad he’s changed me from a woman to a lousy Sherlock Holmes

I’m tired of being d?class?
He lies and he cheats and that’s not fair play
You don’t treat a mistress quite that way
That dirty rat
He treats me like a wife

Schlegel:

Here’s to the treacherous heel

Rosalie:

Tra la

Schlegel:

And to the throb in his heart

Rosalie:

Tra la
Wait for a few years to pass
Tra la
He’ll keep his teeth in a glass
Tra la
And that throb in his heart will be gas

Both:

Ha ha
Here’s to the treacherous heel

Rosalie:

He’ll be humming
When I walk into that trailer
He’ll be humming
Admiring his chin in the mirror on the shelf
Smug and satisfied, throwing kisses at himself
Then tonight, I’d say at midnight, with a loud impassioned cluck
He’ll be after me and groaning like a strangulated duck
I’ll see him coming, I’ll walk out and slam the door
And that will kill him
What’s good for the gander is good for the goose
I’ll get a little tight, I’ll be a little loose
I won’t get home ‘til morning
And I’ll give him no excuse

Oh I’ll be humming
When I walk into that trailer
I’ll be humming
I’ll have him going crazy
While I’m humming
Ha ha ha
I’ll be humming
