lyrics

DISHWATER & BLONDE-4-REAL

It proved to be the real deal
When Dishwater and Blond-4-Real
When Dishwater and Blond-For-Real
Met at Greenwich and Christopher

Like a ball hung from a string
The world spun like a child
Twirl, twirl, twirling around
Who’d deny love
Right around the corner
Right around the corner
Just around the corner

Long since in their graves
Blessed be the dogs that played
Blessed be the dogs that played
Fetch after work that day

Like a ball hung from a string
The world spun like a child
Twirl, twirl, twirling around
Who’d deny love
Right around the corner
Right around the corner
Just around the corner

They caught her eye and she stayed
Talking of her eventful day
A friend came knocking on her front door
Said he couldn’t keep his dog no more
She found that hound an upstate farm
With a bunch of kids who were totally charmed

Twenty years have slipped away
Since Dishwater made his play
Since Dishwater made his play
But it feels like just yesterday

Like a ball hung from a string
The world spun like a child
Twirl, twirl, twirling around
Who’d deny love
Right around the corner
Right around the corner
Just around the corner
