Hush Now (Stella's Tarantella) - Over the Rhine

Hush now my sweet little noisy boy

There is trouble enough in the world

Pick up your feet little lazy boy

Come dance with your little girl

Spin me 'round this kitchen floor

Like a carnaval

Troubadour

I know we’re only two-bit clowns

In a one-ring circus

But make me a little bit dizzy boy

Swing me on your trapeze

When I’m in the arms of my dreamy boy

It still makes me weak in the knees

Right here on this record player

Is our scratchy song

We’re alone

Slide trombones like an orchestra

Full of fortune tellers

Come now my sweet little breathing boy

I’m listening hard to your heart

It’s as strong as a lion’s boy

Let’s leave here and make a new start

I remember once you said

Lying in this bed

The past is dead

Everyday is a one-act play

Without an ending
