Copacabana (At The Copa)

In the style of

Barry Manilow

Lyrics

her name was lola
she was a showgirl

with yellow feathers
in her hair
and a dress
cut down to there
she would merengue
and do the cha-cha

and while she tried
to be a star
tony always
tended bar
across the
crowded floor
they worked from
eight till four

they were young and
they had each other
who could ask
for more
at the copa
copacabana
the hottest spot
north of havana

at the copa
copacabana
music and passion
were always
the fashion
at the copa
they fell in love

his name was rico
he wore a diamond
he was escorted
to his chair
he saw lola
dancing there
and when she finished
he called her over

but rico went
a bit too far
tony sailed across
the bar
and then
the punches flew
and chairs were
smashed in two

there was blood
and a single gunshot
but just who shot who
at the copa
copacabana
the hottest spot
north of havana

at the copa
copacabana
music and passion
were always
the fashion
at the copa
she lost her love

her name is lola
she was a showgirl

but that was
thirty years ago
when they used
to have a show
now it's a disco
but not for lola

still in the dress
she used to wear
faded feathers
in her hair
she sits there
so refined
and drinks herself
half blind

she lost her youth
and she lost her tony
now she's
lost her mind
at the copa
copacabana
the hottest spot
north of havana

at the copa
copacabana
music and passion
were always
the fashion
at the copa
don't fall in love
don't fall in love
