Letra de The Transformation Into Marlene

[Verse 1]
I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
I wish that I had sex appeal
I’d love to play the part
Some bouffe Berlin biergarten
And captivate with my singspiel
(Darling, du bist mein herz!)
[Verse 2]
I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
I’d have you light my cigarette
A vamp across the Steinway
I’d sing songs from the Rhineway
Then I’d retire to my couchette!
[Chorus]
Let the dancing girls all dance till dawn
In our little cabaret
The concertina plays an old chanson
And Lola Lola has her way!
[Verse 3]
I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
A goddess demon virgin whore
We’d walk around the strasse
As close as two kielbasa
And talk of days before the war!
[Interlude]
Ya-da-da-di-da-da-da-da
Ya-da-da-di-da-da-da
Ya-ba-ba-di-da-da
Ya-da-da-di-da-da-da
Da-di-di-di-da-di-da-da
[Spoken]
I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
I’d wear a sailor suit
And you’d take me in your arms
And you’d slap me… again
Otra vez por favor
I am the luckiest boy alive
[Verse 4]
Oh, I could be your Blonde Venus
Or I could be your Lilli Marlene
And with a touch of ennui
I’d say ciao, tschüss, or bonne nuit!
Au revoir, auf wiedersehen!
[Chorus]
Oh, let those dancing girls all dance till dawn
In our little cabaret
The concertina plays an old chanson
And Lola Lola has her way!
[Verse 5]
Oh, I could be Marlene Dietrich
I know that I could if I tried
More than Hepburn and Garbo
Rita Hayworth or Miss Monroe
It’s Marlene I feel inside
[Verse 6]
My God, I am Marlene Dietrich!
My God, I do have sex appeal!
Joe, play that concertina!
Viva the Deutsche Diva!
At last Marlene from head to…
Heel!
