lyrics

Well my acquaintance
They’re all jugglers and clowns, and so am I
Do you think? What you say?
And Eva she still loves me
Even though I don’t like the symphonies
Fabulous and miserable I sing

Egon, you’ve gotta love someone
Oh, for what it’s worth, I do I do I do
Find you fascinating
Would you come staggering down the street?
Oh, well naturally not, we live inside ourselves

It tumbles down in old Vienna town
I like hearing you talking
Doors opening and closing
Of people you meet and all that I miss
See, oh oh see, in the snowy streets
A figure on parade
In the windows and say
Just look at me now

Egon, you’ve gotta love someone
Oh, for what it’s worth, I do I do I do
Find you fascinating
Would you come staggering down the street?
Oh, well naturally not, we live inside ourselves

Woah oh, everything is weird
And I love myself
What a wedding it would make
Woah oh oh no, woah oh oh
Egon, you’ve gotta love someone
I think he knew
He had a girlfriend you know
And he was married, oh no
