Rene and Georgette Magritte with Their Dog After the War (Original Acoustic Demo)

Rene and Georgette Magritte with Their Dog After the War (Original Acoustic Demo) - Paul Simon

Rene and Georgette Magritte

With their dog after the war

Returned to their hotelsuite

And they unlocked the door

Easily losing their evening clothes

They dance by the light of the moon

To The Penguins

The Moonglows

The Orioles

And The Five Satins

The deep forbidden music

They'd been longing for

Rene and Georgette Magritte

With their dog after the war

Rene and Georgette Magritte

With their dog after the war

Were strolling down Christopher Street

When they stopped in a men's store

With all of the mannequins

Dressed in the style

That brought tears to their

Immigrant eyes

Just like The Penguins

The Moonglows

The Orioles

And The Five Satins

The easy stream of laughter

Flowing through the air

Rene and Georgette Magritte

With their dog apres la guerre

Side by side

They fell asleep

Decades gliding by like Indians

Time is cheap

When they wake up they will find

All their personal belongings

Have intertwined

Rene and Georgette Magritte

With their dog after the war

Were dining with the power elite

And they looked in their bedroom drawer

And what do you think

They have hidden away

In the cabinet cold of their hearts

The Penguins

The Moonglows

The Orioles

And The Five Satins

For now and ever after

As it was before

Rene and Georgette Magritte With their dog

After the war
