MAC AMORE

For Gigi:

Happy holidays

“(In Napoli where love is king

When boy meets girl here's what they say)

Five'll get you ten Old Macky's back in town

D'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe …

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie

Just a jackknife has MacHeath, that’s amore!

Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear

And it shows them pearly white,"Vita bella".

You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe

And he keeps it out of sight, that’s amore!

Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay

Scarlet billows start to spread, like a gay tarantella.

Fancy gloves, though wears MacHeath, babe

When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fool.

When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine

there's never, never a trace of red, that’s amore.

When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet

Oh, that cement is just its there for the weight, you're in love

When you walk in a dream but you know you're not

Dreaming senior, someone's sneakin' 'round a corner.

When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine

D'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe.

Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling

Old Macky's back in town,  "Vita bella".

Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli

That's amore (amore)
