Lyrics

Just Like Betty Page
Hey, hey, hey.

Can I see you again?
It's been such fun,
What we've done,
I should like to do it forever

Hey

Tell me, what do you say
If you say no,
I don't know,
What I'm going to do with forever, because

You ... have me
As far as I can see,
Roped and trussed just like Dear Betty Page

Betty Page. Ask your dad.

And I know, that it's fine
That sweet taste of Gwendoline
But you tie me up and I've no wish to disengage.

Hey, hey
Can I see you again
It's been such fun what we've done
I should Iike to do it forever

Hey

Look.. tell me, what do you say
If you say no,
And I don't know,
What I'm going to do with forever, because

You ... have me
As far as I could see,
Roped and trussed just like Dear Betty Page

Ooh, and I know, that it's fine
That sweet taste of Gwendoline
I don't want to disengage

Oh girl what you've done to me
Girl what you've done to me
Oh girl
Oh

Found On

Buy These Records
A Scandal In Bohemia
The Albatross. A record, I feel, of its time. We were young(ish) and cocky and I think it shows. I still haven't learned to sing on this one, which bugs me too. Still, it was cheap and cheerful, and it helped us to meet an awful lot of people.

These are only for what I think are the "rare" chords. Also they're the easiest variants to finger(IMHO). - Will That's it, really. The whole point of many early Jazz Butcher songs is that they use very cliched "lounge" chord progressions like the above. - Eb
