<br>
And if one day I should become<br>
A singer with a Spanish bum<br>
Who sings for women of great virtue<br>
I'd sing to them with a guitar<br>
I borrowed from coffee bar<br>
Well, what you don't know doesn't hurt you<br>
My name would be Antonio<br>
And all my bridges I would burn<br>
And if I gave them some they'd know<br>
I expect something in return<br>
I'd have to get drunk every night<br>
To talk about virility <br>
With some old grandmother who might<br>
Be decked out like a Christmas tree<br>
And tho' pink elephants I'd see<br>
I'd sing the song they sang to me<br>
About the time they called me Jackie<br>
If I could be for only an hour<br>
If I could be for an hour every day<br>
If I could be for just one little hour<br>
Cute, cute, cute in a stupid-ass way<br>
And if I joined the social whirl<br>
Became procurer of young girls<br>
Then I would have my own bordellos<br>
My record would be number one<br>
And I'd sell records by the ton<br>
All sung by many other fellows<br>
My name would then be handsome Jack<br>
And I'd sell boats of opium<br>
Whiskey that came from Twickenham<br>
Authentic queers and phony virgins<br>
I'd have a bank on every finger<br>
A finger in every country<br>
And every country ruled by me<br>
I still know where I'd want to be<br>
Locked up inside my opium den<br>
Surrounded by some Chinamen<br>
I'd sing the song that I sang then<br>
About the time they called me Jackie<br>
If I could be for only an hour<br>
If I could be for an hour every day<br>
If I could be for just one little hour<br>
Cute, cute, cute in a stupid-ass way<br>
Now tell me wouldn't it be nice<br>
That if one day in Paradise<br>
I sang for all the ladies up there<br>
And they would sing along with me<br>
We'd be so happy there to be<br>
'Cause down below is really nowhere<br>
My name would then be Jupiter<br>
And I would know where I was going<br>
And then I would become all knowing<br>
With my beard so long and flowing<br>
If I became deaf dumb and blind<br>
Because I pitied all mankind<br>
And broke my heart to make things right<br>
I know that every single night<br>
when my angelic work was through<br>
The angels and the devil too<br>
Would sing my childhood song to me<br>
About the time they called me Jackie<br>
If I could be for only an hour<br>
If I could be for an hour every day<br>
If I could be for just one little hour<br>
Cute, cute, cute in a stupid-ass way<br>
 <br>
