Tap Dance The Hangman

from June '95 / Tap Dance The Hangman by Black Manila

	/

lyrics

standing in a doorway, looking for my man
waiting for the good times with a cigarette in my hand
sipping on a black coffee and i'm talking to a policeman
said i feel like a young jesus, but this feeling's second hand
here he comes now

(here he comes)
with his jaguar
with his zulu smile
you've gotta watch him now
oh here he comes now

standing in a doorway, looking for my man
i ain't seen the sunshine since i don't know when
all the commotion on the street, in the place where we should meet
you've got to watch that hangmans feet, tap-dancing to the hangman beat
oh here he comes now

(here he comes)
with his jaguar
with his zulu smile
you've gotta watch him now
to the other side
to the other side of town
