Oh I met a little girl on the marketplace
Born without a proper face
Made to fill that magical sensation
A lovely voice like a radio
Talking in a lavatory disarray
Jacuzzi conversation flow
It was the summer of 187
She played piano, stiff to the bone
Blue in the eyes under a veil of leather
We dressed her in red, but she took off her hip
And now she's gone for good
Dance, dance, dance, I'm Erica, aha!
Look at me, aha, look at me, I'm all you've got
Yes, I've been in love with you, baby
Ever since I was a high school boy
But I never said it's gonna be easy
Hello, hello, we're putting up a show
The Germans in the attic baking chains of little Joes
It's such a beautiful day, they're crying on display
Where bitterflies on motorbikes and nasty conversations are the best
Dance, dance, dance I'm Erica, aha!
Look at me, aha, look at me, I'm all you've got
Yes, I had a crush on you, baby
Ever since I was an orphanage girl
You promised me a place in your world
Baby, baby, baby, can I kiss you?
Can I kiss you on the lip?
Can I put you in a Jelly Belly jar and take a sip?
Baby, baby can I touch you?
Can I touch you on the thigh
Can I touch you where my shoulder needs to cry?
They watch, they touch, they promised way too much
The greasy hand are ripping off her pants and all her friends they say:
Hello, hello, look at her now
Just hanging from the chandelier, she's such a ballerina
Oh God, you must have seen her when she was doing the fandango
(Look at her now!)
Now roll the curtains down!
Here comes the queen of the play
The Japanese girl with a rusty tambourine
Dance, dance, dance I am Erica, aha!
Look at me, aha, look at me, I'm all you've got
Yes, I've been loving you, baby
Ever since I was an orphanage girl
Aaaaah
