| [00:09.02] |
I stood outside the Lucky Star |
| [00:11.08] |
Staring at the flashing sign |
| [00:14.06] |
It read: come on in and watch young |
| [00:17.02] |
Scarlet's body come alive |
| [00:20.02] |
Let her dance for you and catch your spell |
| [00:23.03] |
You'll swear you can believe her |
| [00:27.08] |
Be careful not to catch the scarlet fever |
| [00:32.04] |
|
| [00:33.03] |
So I paid my fare and walked down front |
| [00:36.05] |
And found an empty chair |
| [00:39.00] |
As I settled in young scarlet took the ribbons from her hair |
| [00:44.05] |
The moves her body made while the music played |
| [00:47.09] |
Were the likes I've never seen |
| [00:52.07] |
And she became the envy of my dreams |
| [00:56.05] |
|
| [00:58.00] |
One by one her teasing movements |
| [01:00.05] |
Brought the crowd out of their seats |
| [01:03.08] |
And all at once young scarlet |
| [01:06.02] |
Danced straight up in front of me |
| [01:09.02] |
From the moment that her eyes found mine |
| [01:12.05] |
I've never been the same |
| [01:16.05] |
Scarlet locked another heart upon her chain |
| [01:21.00] |
|
| [01:22.07] |
Now I get scarlet fever every time I see her |
| [01:34.01] |
But she's a night club teaser |
| [01:40.00] |
Not paid to notice me |
| [01:45.08] |
Yes, I get scarlet fever |
| [01:51.02] |
If she knew how much I need her |
| [01:57.02] |
She'd place her hand in my hand |
| [02:03.06] |
And dance away with me |
| [02:08.08] |
|
| [02:10.05] |
She looked 25 but I was told |
| [02:13.03] |
That she was just 16 |
| [02:16.05] |
She had a way of making a man believe |
| [02:19.03] |
She danced for only him |
| [02:21.08] |
As she tantalized I fantasized |
| [02:25.01] |
And felt the sound of my heart beat |
| [02:29.02] |
And every night I'd dream |
| [02:30.09] |
She'd fall in love with me |
| [02:33.05] |
|
| [02:34.07] |
Then one night while driving in |
| [02:37.05] |
My eyes begun to tear |
| [02:40.07] |
'Cos the sign outside the Lucky Star said: scarlet isn't here |
| [02:46.07] |
she'd left that day to find a life |
| [02:49.07] |
Of bigger and better things |
| [02:53.07] |
And she left behind my chain of broken dreams |
| [02:58.00] |
|
| [02:59.07] |
But still get scarlet fever |
| [03:05.03] |
In my mind I still see her |
| [03:11.07] |
Out there dancing somewhere |
| [03:16.09] |
To another fool like me |
| [03:21.01] |
|
| [03:22.07] |
Yes, I get scarlet fever |
| [03:28.07] |
If she knew how much I need her |
| [03:34.05] |
She'd place her hand in my hand |
| [03:40.04] |
And dance away with me |
| [03:49.02] |
