Jonah Whale
Dangerous Games

HE’S JUST A SNOWMAN WHO COULDN’T TAKE THE HEAT

SHE’S JUST A SCHOOLGIRL ON SATIN SHEETS

CIGARETTE LEFT BURNING IN THE ASHTRAY

MARY IS LEARNING LESSONS OF LOVE THE HARD WAY

 

AND MARY GOES UP, AND MARY GOES DOWN

AND MARY GOES ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND

 

SHE’S GOT DIAMONDS AND GOLD AND THE MOON UP ABOVE

SOMETIMES FOR MONEY, ALWAYS FOR LOVE

JUST ONE MORE JOHNNY CHASING SHORT SKIRTS

A TRAGEDY QUEEN, A LITTLE FUN NEVER HURTS

 

AND MARY GOES UP, AND MARY GOES DOWN

AND MARY GOES ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND

 

SHE’LL NEVER MAKE THE HEADLINES OR THE COVER OF TIME

SHE’LL NEVER MAKE HER DEADLINES EVEN THOUGH SHE’S TRYIN

 

SHE GOES OVER THE LIMIT IF THE GO RBUND IS FREE

SHE CAN BURN THEM LIKE FIRE IF THEY LIKE WHAT THEY SEE

EVERYTHING SHE WANTS, IS IN THE PALM OF HER HAND

A TRICK OF THE TRADE, A PART OF THE PLAN

 

SHE’LL NEVER MAKE THE HEADLINES OR THE SIX O’CLOCK NEWS

SHE’LL NEVER MAKE HER DEADLINES SHE PAYS HER DUES

 

AND MARY GOES ROUND

AND MARY GOES ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND
