an enchanting evening

by jan oskar hansen - Scorpio

An Enchanting Evening 


Hang the moon in an apple tree,
Glue folio stars on a blackboard,
For tonight I'm in the mood for
Drinking red wine and dance big
Holes in my woollen socks.


If I don't get too pissed and end 
Up in a whorehouse, I might 
Meet you sitting quietly in a bar 
Coaxing a jukebox into playing 
Sighing records. 


Dance till the barman throws us 
Out, walk home as the moon is 
Handed over to China's night and 
See the sun arise over the slagheap 
The town's people call a mountain.
