Butterfly Dance (Bob Harris Session) - Kevin Ayers

Everything you do is true as long as you believe it

And everything you say is play and that’s how you should treat it

And everyone is high until there’s something makes them low

That’s when you should stay, that’s not the time to go

No, no, no, no, no, no

That’s when you should stay and let your love just flow

Lady lady won’t you come here quick

This whisky and wine is making me sick

I want you now and I don’t t care why

You crazy beautiful butterfly

And it could take all night to get a single thing right

It could take all day to find something to say

Ask me a question and I’ll tell you a lie

Ask me another, I’ll spit in your eye

Don’t like to leave you but I know I can’t stay

So just keep lovin' in your butterfly way

And it could take all night to get a single thing right

It could take all day to find something to say

Too much and too many things on my mind

Can’t make a story of things I can’t find

Rock and roll music playin' in my head

Gonna keep on dancin' till I drop down dead

It could take all night to get a single thing right

It could take all day to find something to say

Lady lady won’t you come here quick

Cause these evil drugs are makin' me sick

I want you now and I don’t care why

You crazy beautiful butterfly

And it could take all night to get a single thing right

It could take all day to find something to say

Magical margaret

You know you’re so high above

You fill my head with music

My heart with love

And it could take all night to get a single thing right

It could take all day to find something to say

Magical margaret…
