Lyrics

(CN.C.)Show a lit tle more; of,

but show a lit tle less.

Add a lit tle smoke;

wel come to Bur (Am)lesque.

(CN.C.)Ev ’ry thing you dream of,

but nev er can pos sess.

Noth ing’s what it seems;

wel come to Bur (Am)lesque.

(CN.C.)Ev ’ry thing you dream (Am)lesque.

Oh,

ev ’ry one is buy ing; put your (Am)mon ey in my hand.

If you’ve got a lit tle ex tra, well,

You may not be guilt y,

but you’re read y to con (E7)fess.

Tell me what you need;

wel come to Bur (Am)lesque.

You can dream of (Bbm)Co co;

do it at your (F7)risk.

The trip lets grant you mer cy,

but not your ev ’ry (Bbm)wish.

Jes se keeps you guess ing,

so cool and stat u (F7)esque.

“Be have your self,” says Geor gia;

wel come to Bur (Bbm)lesque.

Oh,

ev ’ry one is buy ing; put your (Bbm)mon ey in my hand.

If you want a lit tle ex tra, well,

Some thing ver y dark

is play ing with your (F#7)mind.

It’s not the end of days,

it’s just the bump and grind.

Show a lit tle more;

show a lit tle less.

Add a lit tle (F#7)smoke;

wel come to Bur lesque.
