I Want That Frisson Again

Dame Liza that they give us
up on the balcony
you’d give an arm and leg
but not a bended knee
‘Carpe Diem’ scolds my reaction time
But I wanted that frisson
that very soupçon
that taste so fleeting, yes
before it’s gone

Die Tänzerin they give us
they say she is the best
you shoulda snatched that brass ring
before she flew out west
‘Carpe Diem’ scolds my reaction time
I want that frisson
that very soupçon
that taste so fleeting
here before it’s gone

The eyes do meet, and potentials are guessed
play it all out, and see what meshes best

Dame Hrothgar that they give us
they say she’s mighty fine
colour in her face and
swayed by suave guy’s line
‘Carpe Diem’ scolds my reaction time
I want that frisson again
that very soupçon
that taste so fleeting
here before it’s gone
