stacey kent - the trolley song lyrics
with my high-starched collar and my high-top shoes
and my hair piled high upon my head
i went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley and lost my heart instead.
with his light brown derby and his bright green tie
he was quite the handsomest of men
i started to yen so i counted to ten then i counted to ten again.
clang, clang, clang went the trolley, ding, ding, ding went the bell
zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings
from the moment i saw him i fell.
chug, chug, chug went the motor, b-mp, b-mp, b-mp went the break
thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings
when he smiled i could feel the car shake.
he tipped his hat and took a seat
he said he hoped he hadn’t stepped upon my feet.
he asked my name, i held my breath
i couldn’t speak because he scared me half to death.
buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer, flop, flop, flop went the wheels
stop, stop, stop went my heartstrings
as he started to go then i started to know how it feels
when the universe reels.
as he started to leave, i took hold of his sleeve with my hand
and as if it were planned.
he stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand
with his hand holding mine to the end of the line.
