The Lyrics
I’ll put some gelt on you—
election time
is quickly coming into view,
so I’m buyin’,
buyin’ your silence.
I don’t want it bandied
all about the town
that we two were randy—
not handy to have that spread around.
So here’s the gelt to mute
our past good times,
pastimes.
What’d I do?
I wooed you.
Now, adieu,
with the loot.
Because now
you just can’t share
our past venery
a silence vow—
no speaking
about our swell to-do
in former times.
