Tango: Maureen

Tango: Maureen - Original Broadway Cast "Rent"

The samples won't delay

But the cable

There's another way

Say something anything

Test one two three

Anything but that

This is weird

It's weird

Very weird

F**kin' weird

I'm so mad

That i don't know what to do

Fighting with microphones

Freezing down to my bones

And to top it all off

I'm with you

Feel like going insane

Got a fire in your brain

And you're thinking of drinking gasoline

As a matter of fact

Honey i know the act

It's called the 'tango maureen'

The tango maureen

It's a dark dizzy

Merry-go-round

As she keeps you dangling

You're wrong

Your heart she is mangling

It's different with me

And you toss and you turn

'Cause her cold eyes can burn

Yet you yearn and you churn and rebound

I think i know what you mean

The tango maureen

Has she ever

Pouted her lips

And called you 'pookie'

Never

Have you ever doubted a kiss or two

This is spooky

Did you swoon

When she walked through the door

Every time so be cautious

Did she moon over other boys

More than moon

I'm getting nauseous

It's hard to do this backwards

You should try it in heels

She cheated

She cheated

Maureen cheated

F**kin' cheated

I'm defeated

I should give up right now

Gotta loko on the bright side

With all of your might

I'd fall for her still anyhow

When you're dancing her dance

You don't stand a chance

Her grip of romance

Makes you fall

So you think 'might as well'

'Dance the tango to hell'

'At least i'll have tangoed at all'

The tango maureen

Gotta dance til your diva is through

You pretend to believe her

Cause in the end you can't leave her

But the end it will come

Still you have to play dumb

Til you're glum and you bum

And turn blue

Why do we love when she's mean

And she can be so obscene

Try the mike

My maureen

Patched

Thanks

You know i feel great now

I feel lousy

The tango maureen
