It was a dark and stormy night...nah, I just saw a belly dancer in a club one night.

Song Description

Humorous song about an incident in a bar involving blue martinis and a belly dancer.

Lyrics

The Blue Martini and the Belly Dancer

I was walking on the street one night when I heard a cool guitar
I followed that music to its source it was coming from the Blues End bar
It wasn't hard detective work, it's a quiet part of town
And I can't resist the wine and song so I entered and sat down

They serve something called the purple drink and a blue martini too
Course I never stop to think and I poured down quite a few
The floor began to shift a bit and the room began to spin
Then the belly dancer took the stage and I was all done in

She swayed her arms and legs and hips and through my wild blue haze
She looked into my very heart and set my soul ablaze
I got caught up in the magic like a moth around a flame, and since
The blue martini and the belly dancer I haven't been the same

The rest of the night was just a blur I was lost somewhere in space
My ears rang like cathedral bells and I couldn't feel my face
Something about a sidewalk and a man called "Bouncer Bill"
And a whole lot more I can't recall and I doubt I ever will

I don't have a message or a moral for this tale
But the noonday sun don't shine as bright and the colors all seem pale
My brain does overheat some, bet I burnt some brain that night
And my legs start shaking something fierce when I recall that sight

She swayed her arms and legs and hips and through my wild blue haze
She looked into my very heart and set my soul ablaze
I got caught up in the magic like a moth around a flame, and since
The blue martini and the belly dancer I haven't been the same
