Blunderbuss

I had my dream
 I held your hand on that broad avenue
 We crossed the road and never spoke
 To another as we flew
 We left your man alone in drag
 Laughin' there at us
 A romantic bust, a blunder turned
 Explosive blunderbuss
 ♪
 An ancient grand hotel
 Of Persian thread and ivory
 And when your man would turn his head
 I'd see you look at me
 Pools of brown and sea of red
 And demons in your pocket
 That sang romance, performed a dance
 Inside a silver locket
 ♪
 A corner exit, not tall enough
 To walk out standin' straight
 Designed by men so ladies
 Would have to lean back in their gait
 You grabbed my arm and left with me
 But you were not allowed to
 You took me to a public place
 To quietly blend into
 Such a trick pretending
 Not to be doin' what you want to
 But seems like everybody does this
 Every waking moment
 ♪
 I laid you down and touched you
 Like the two of us both needed
 Safe to say that others
 Might not approve of this, and pleaded
 "So selfish them," would be their cry
 And who'd be brave to argue?
 Doin' what two people need
 Is never on the menu
