Winter Awhile

If you want a cool break by a frosty lake
Then I’m the guy you’ll want to see
For a ride up the mountain to a chic chalet
Winter Awhile with me
Palm Desert is nice, I’ve only been there twice
The climate isn’t so versatile
The temperature’s oppressive, I intend to be suggestive
Come along and Winter Awhile
BRIDGE
It won’t feel like Christmastime
Unless you’re getting snow on the ground
A jaunt on a caterpillar through the pine
With not another human around
Why dontcha come forth and bring your chassis up north
Canoodle on a cozy settee
Frisky pranks while romping in the snow banks
Winter Awhile with me
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
Snow shoes in powder, and then some duck chowder
And if you want to cross-country ski
I’ve got the gear, and if you’ve got the gumption
Winter Awhile with me
Jet planes are quick if you wanna take a trip
Far away from the Salton Sea
We’ll enhance bliss and celebrate the solstice
Winter Awhile with me
BRIDGE
Hot spiced cider, leave out the rum
Don’t ever want to catch you off your guard
Forget Jack Frost so we can get lost
And get rescued by a Saint Bernard
I wanna confide and be your nature guide
Escape from the bourgeoisie
Put on your parka, the night is getting darker
You’ll fall in love I guarantee
I’ll fend off the bears and be your concierge
Journey through the forest in style
Proceed with me and Winter Awhile

Bongo Fever
03:54
|

|
Tropical moonlight, a humid and hot night
The setting for bongos to play
Steady and strong goes the beat of the bongos
While sanity rushes away
Sensual, erotic, but more than hypnotic
The rhythm will not leave your mind
Bongos exotic become a narcotic
When held in their spell you will find
From all your cares and your worldly affairs
You've escaped, but you're raped by the fever
Bongo Fever wracking your brain
Bongos beating till you're driven insane
While dark bodies writhing with passion
Dance in the glow of the fire
So savage and wild in their fashion
And seething with carnal desire
Fever! Bongo Fever taking its toll
Bongos leaving me with no self control
It's evil and strange what those drums do
Throbbing with lust as they play
But I'm such a slave to their voodoo
That I know I can't break away
Fever! Damn that Bongo Fever!
Can't escape that fever!
Though I know it's thrilling it's killing my soul
It's killing my soul
My soul...
Bongo Fever!
