barry manilow - copacabana (at the copa) lyrics
her name was lola, she was a showgirl
with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
she would merengue and do the cha-cha
and while she tried to be a star
tony always tended bar
across the crowded floor, they worked from 8 til 4
they were young and they had each other
who could ask for more?
[chorus:]
at the copa (co!) copacabana (copacabana)
the hottest spot north of havana (here)
at the copa (co!) copacabana
music and p-ssion were always in fashion
at the copa…. they fell in love
his name was rico
he wore a diamond
he was escorted to his chair, he saw lola dancing there
and when she finished,he called her over
but rico went a bit to far
tony sailed across the bar
and then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
there was blood and a single gun shot
but just who shot who?
[chorus]
at the copa… she lost her love
her name is lola, she was a showgirl,
but that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show
now it’s a disco, but not for lola,
still in dress she used to wear,
faded feathers in her hair
she sits there so refined,and drinks herself half-blind
she lost her youth and she lost her tony
now she’s lost her mind
[chorus]
at the copa… don’t fall in love
don’t fall in love
