The Roches - Steady With The Maestro lyrics

(by george gerdes) She goes steady with the maestro And she rosins his baton But when he goes out on a binge-o She's been known to carry on When the maestro goes out and paints the town Maestro he gets very jealous When she talks to any other man And the other men's women tend to worry What's she got to talk about with them? The women worry 'bout what she wanna do When she's through conducting her interlude One time i saw her at the cafe She was laughin' like she just let down her hair The time i saw her on the sidewalk And her face was all flushed and filled with tears The time i saw her in front of the pet shop And the maestro and the goose and the ghost were there The time i saw her on her doorstep She invited me upstairs And she gave me a wooded chair That i sit on in my underwear I used to play the second fiddle In her philharmonic hall But now i look out for numero uno And i don't play no violins at all I play the part of the man who crawls the wall
