Songteksten

[Verse 1]
Rene and Georgette Magritte
With their dog after the war
[Verse 2]
Returned to their hotel suite
And they unlocked the door
Easily losing their evening clothes
They dance by the light of the moon
[Verse 3]
To The Penguins
The Moonglows
The Orioles
And The Five Satins
The deep forbidden music, they'd been longing for
[Verse 4]
Rene and Georgette Magritte
With their dog after the war
Rene and Georgette Magritte
With their dog after the war
[Verse 5]
Were strolling down Christopher Street
When they stopped in a men's store
With all of the mannequins dressed in the style
That brought tears to their immigrant eyes
[Verse 6]
Just like The Penguins
The Moonglows
The Orioles
And The Five Satins
The easy stream of laughter flowing through the air
[Verse 7]
Rene and Georgette Magritte
With their dog apres la guerre
[Verse 8]
Side by side, they fell asleep
Decades gliding by like Indians, time is cheap
When they wake up, they will find
All their personal belongings have intertwined
[Verse 9]
Rene and Georgette Magritte
With their dog after the war
[Verse 10]
Were dining with the power elite
And they looked in their bedroom drawer
And what do you think they have hidden away
In the cabinet cold of their hearts?
[Verse 11]
The Penguins
The Moonglows
The Orioles
And The Five Satins
For now and ever after, as it was before
[Verse 12]
Rene and Georgette Magritte
With their dog after the war
