Night of the Iguana

[Verse 1]
The tour bus came yesterday
The driver's a mess today
It's a dump of a destiny
But it's got a view

[Verse 2]
Now the kid in the see-through blouse
She's moving in hard on his holy vows
Since the preacher's not dead
Dead drunk will have to do

[Chorus 1]
Night of the iguana
The jasmine is so mercilessly sweet
Night of the iguana
Can you hear the castanets?
The widow is dancing down on the beach

[Verse 3]
The starlight is steaming
He'd like to be dreaming
His senses are screaming
Not to be denied

[Verse 4]
But if the spell of the night should win
He could lose his bus for the same sweet sin
That took his church from him
Then how will he survive?

[Chorus 2]
Night of the iguana
The jasmine is so mercilessly sweet
Night of the iguana
Can you hear the castanets?
It's the widow and her lover boys down on the beach

[Verse 5]
Oh, the night is so fragrant
These women so flagrant
They could make him a vagrant
With the flick of a shawl

[Verse 6]
The devil's in sweet sixteen
The widow's good looking but she gets mean
He's burning like Augustine
With no help from God at all

[Outro]
Night of the iguana
