verse 2
His name was Rico, he wore a diamond
He was escorted to his chair
He saw Lola dancing there
And when she d finished, he called her over
But Rico went a bit too far
Tony sailed across the bar
And then the punches flew
And chairs were smashed in two
There was blood and a single gunshot
But just, who shot who ?
Chorus
verse 3
Her name is Lola, she was a show girl
But that was thirty years ago
When there used to be a show
Now it s a disco
But not for Lola
Still in the 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
At the Copa etc........ (chorus)
