Tango

When I was no more than a boy,
Back then my hair was in style,
Two hundred women fell in love
After they saw my charming smile.

I did the mamba in Monaco,
I did the samba in Havana,
I belly danced in Istanbul
To songs by Abba and Nirvana.

[Chorus:]

This magic tango
Reminds of champaign in Bangkok,
Romantic nights in Casablanca
And trasvist nights in Ho Chi Minh.

That life was stronger
And prophylactics lasted longer
And making love was such a fun
When I was cool, when I was young.

Night in Havana cabaret...
Bikini, mini, smoking, sweat...
This tango beautiful like dream
Was softly played by Grateful Dead...

I got so drunk I sank my boat,
It couldn't spoil my happy smile,
I swam from Moscow to New York
Five hundred thousand square miles...
