Just that one time I'm begging you, Betty
Bon-ton on a knife's edge
I've got misalliance in my heart
Horizons in my grip
An ocean set on fire in my head
And just that one time I'm begging you
A leap for miracle
And will we make it?
Before wrinkles and pounds get us
For better or worse
My mirages and heresies
Mr. Amok or Mr. Dust?
A whisper murmurs so murmurs
Hey! You!
Become an undying poem
Be...
Just that one time I'm begging you, Betty
A discreet nonsense of a mirror
I'm standing alone in a sacred snare of a bus-stop
Mr. Dust stealing your lips
And just that one time I'm begging you
Maybe lightnings will hit the spot at last
Cracking this pathetic world in half
The poles will kiss one another
My mirages and heresies
Mr. Amok or Mr. Dust?
A whisper murmurs so murmurs
Hey! You!
Become an undying poem
Be the undying poem
Everything I have here to say to you
Is just my petty lies
Everything I have here to say to you
A shade of a last chance
Everything I have here to say to you
And perhaps I'm all wrong
Everything I have here to say to you
It ain't no fooling around...
And just that one time I'm begging you, Betty
And just that one time I'm begging you
And just that one time I'm begging you, pretty
And just that one time I'm begging you
The prettiest in the whole world
In the whole world
In the whole world
