lyrics

THE CROWD GOES WILD
(Peter Sando)
A loud guitar the superstar
gets caught up in his own disguise
flying fingers and a monkey on his back
right before your eyes
praise from the critics hype in the press
his image is perfect but his life is a mess
and The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild again

Trumpets roar the matador
sparkles in grand parade
up to the moment of final truth
when the kill is finally made
an ear for the lady the cape for the king
as kerchiefs and roses pour into the ring
and The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild again

Spotlights fade the naked young lady
has tranquilized her pride
now she’s a feast for hungry eyes
there’s no place left to hide
she’d be up on the ladder
if she ever had a chance
but she forces a smile
and gets lost in the dance
and The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild again

Jump! Jump! they scream to the man
on the roof from the street below
he knows it’s time to bring the curtain down
there’ll be no second show
call for the clergy call for the net
but for once in his life his mind is set
and The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild
The Crowd Goes Wild again
