The Lyrics
Tango dancer Mark
Has so few friends
’cause tango dancer Mark
Had untrue ends.
His pleasure was to plunder;
He’d fly from here. . .
Taxpayers’ dime,
Then south he’s gone.
Crooked and a blight,
Went to new love.
He booked illegal flights
Down there to screw love.
Even allies say, time ties to sever
Amity with Mark.
One-time chums now scold,
Friendships turning cold.
They see, this man’s a skunk
If you like, a swine,
Acting not so fine,
He is plumb dumber ’n’ dumb,
Plumbing his azúcar plum,
Tango dancer Mark.
Has so few friends
’cause tango dancer Mark
Had untrue ends.
His pleasure was to plunder;
He’d fly from here. . .
Taxpayers’ dime,
Then south he’s gone.
Crooked and a blight,
Went to new love.
He booked illegal flights
Down there to screw love.
Even allies say, time ties to sever
Amity with Mark.
One-time chums now scold,
Friendships turning cold.
They see, this man’s a skunk
If you like, a swine,
Acting not so fine,
He is plumb dumber ’n’ dumb,
Plumbing his azúcar plum,
Tango dancer Mark.
