Cleo & Tony

cleo wrote to tony

now pull me from this hell

i'll hock all of my precious jewels

and find a cheap motel

there's only room for you and me

the only two who care

egyptians and centurions

could kill this perfect pair

who's watching the nile

how far can it be

not more than a mile

til both of us are free

we'll fool them at the border

and tell them that we're lost

if bribes are what they order

we'll pay them what it costs

tony wrote to cleo

now don't you sell no ring

i know this perfect getaway

just outside peking

we might stick out a little

let's hope that they won't stare

chinamen and asians won't kill this perfect pair

chorus

tony picked up cleo

heard some yell caesar

now how you think they mean that

you think as in to seize her

or is it one's perception

and how some pharaoh sees her

insted a passerby confusion

tony for julius caesar

chorus

we'll leave this misery

and both of us are free
