  • All she ever wanted
    When the day turned indigo,
    Was to leave her grubby life behind her
    To the buzzing streets below

    Tainted passion and temptation
    Led her down a trail of lust
    Now the fate of Faye Delroy
    Is written in the dust
    Written in the dust

    [Chorus]
    Oh my rockin' chair
    Rock me tender in the night air
    Oh my rockin' chair
    Rock me back and make me be there

    She said her head don't move the same way
    That their hand usually does
    That she's got memory bubble
    Almost like the rest of us
    And ADD salamanders
    Cannot figure what to wear
    And they'll be standing in the closet
    And every dress is Savoir faire
    Every dress is Savoir faire

    [Chorus: x2]

    [Repeat x3]
    Rock me here rock me there
    Rock me in my rockin' chair

    My oh my, rock me tender in the night air

    Za va ba, za ba bi ya. ca va pas? za ba bi ya
    Romeo Boys, they'll b dancing with the Cha Cha Girlz

    [Chorus: x2] Writer/s: CYNDI LAUPER, F. BUXTON, S. RATCLIFFE
