Vagabond Opera - The Transformation Into Marlene Lyrics

I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
I wish that I had sex appeal
I’d love to play the part
Some bouffe Berlin biergarten
And captivate with my singspiel
(Darling, du bist mein herz!)

I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
I’d have you light my cigarette
A vamp across the Steinway
I’d sing songs from the Rhineway
Then I’d retire to my couchette!

Let the dancing girls all dance till dawn
In our little cabaret
The concertina plays an old chanson
And Lola Lola has her way!

I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
A goddess demon virgin whore
We’d walk around the straße
As close as two kielbasa
And talk of days before the war!

Ya-da-da-di-da-da-da-da
Ya-da-da-di-da-da-da
Ya-ba-ba-di-da-da
Ya-da-da-di-da-da-da
Da-di-di-di-da-di-da-da

I wish I was Marlene Dietrich
I’d wear a sailor suit
And you’d take me in your arms
And you’d slap me again
Otra vez por favor
I am the luckiest boy alive

Oh, I could be your Blonde Venus
Or I could be your Lilli Marlene
And with a touch of ennui
I’d say ciao, tschüss, or bonne nuit!
Au revoir, auf wiedersehen!

Oh, let those dancing girls all dance till dawn
In our little cabaret
The concertina plays an old chanson
And Lola Lola has her way!

Oh, I could be Marlene Dietrich
I know that I could if I tried
More than Hepburn and Garbo
Rita Hayworth or Miss Monroe
It’s Marlene I feel inside

My God, I am Marlene Dietrich!
My God, I do have sex appeal!
Joe, play that concertina!
Viva the Deutsche Diva!
At last Marlene from head to
Heel!
