| Come to the veranda
|
| We can drink to the view
|
| Take off that apron let me
|
| Look at you
|
| Raise a glass for me
|
| I love your steady hand
|
| Those slender fingers are
|
| The measure of a man
|
| My love is total, what’s more I’m all love
|
| And like the greatest states I’ll stand or fall by love
|
| Every dictator
|
| Requires his golden mean
|
| He roots his hard extremities
|
| In the softness in between
|
| And if you deserve my love
|
| Until the empire falls
|
| You’ll be the luckiest citizen of all
|
| Forget the salesman and
|
| Forget the boy you bore him
|
| Since you met me it dawned
|
| You never did adore him
|
| Before they dragged you down
|
| I plucked you out
|
| And in my bed you’ll learn
|
| What life’s about
|
| My love is total
|
| What’s more I’m all love
|
| And like my government
|
| I’ll stand or fall by love
|
| I’ll think of your head
|
| When I give statesmanship
|
| I’ll ply the great orator’s art
|
| When you part those seductive lips
|
| Keep rising in my estimation
|
| Till the empire falls and stay
|
| The luckiest citizen of all
|
| Your lack of insubordination’s
|
| Grating on my patience dear
|
| A little malice wouldn’t go amiss
|
| The father of the nation gets his
|
| Kicks and inspiration from
|
| A revolution not domestic bliss
|
| Don’t think of leaving me
|
| You’ve left it rather late
|
| You know too much now to escape the state
|
| While away my evening with
|
| Your tempting empty dance
|
| Flaunt your single asset while
|
| You’ve still the chance
|
| My love is total
|
| What’s more I’m all love
|
| Like all forgers of alliances
|
| I’ll stand or fall by love
|
| Some sexual democrat
|
| Has got you tangled but
|
| Lie down flat in front of me
|
| And I’ll show you all three angles
|
| Stay eager and spread-eagled
|
| Until the empire falls
|
| You’ll be the luckiest citizen of all
|
| Sometimes they make me melancholy
|
| Waiting on my beck and call
|
| Pragmatic pretty women all for me
|
| It’s only commonsensical
|
| Magnetic magic menstrual
|
| My Mata Hari meritocracy |
