Well the dog act got drunk again last night

And the king and queen of the waltz clog team

Had another fight

King was careless with his tango grip

Nearly lost his queen in a dip

Yeah she righted herself straightened out her slip

And kicked him in the shin

Miss Billy Begonia thinks she's hit the big time

She wants a thick red rug

From the dressing room door

To the front line of the footlights

She's got a sky blue swansdown powder puff

And a corset to keep her spirits up

Yeah she don't sweat she sours and melts

Like ice cream in the sun

She'll be out of a job at the

End of this three week run

We're havin' fun out here

On Panic Beach

All the Vaudeville bums are here

Out on Panic Beach

I hear them talk about the Palace

But it's so far out of reach

So I'll do my time

Then say goodbye to Panic Beach

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

The visionary theatric

Strikes a juggler's seesaw tune

And the dying swan pirouettes and fawns

By the light of the street lamp moon

When my trunk is filled with taffeta

Those big time hacks won't laugh at us

When my taps are made of silver

I can make the kiddies thrill

For just one buck and wing

Yeah I will nail them to my heel

And the Panic Choir sings

Here comes a lucky little thing

To Panic Beach

Yeah you know we got

To teach him how to sing

While we're stuck on Panic Beach

Ah the way ya hear 'em say it

Doesn't seem so outta reach

So I'll do my time

Then say goodbye to Panic Beach

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Well the landlord gets a free show

Every Saturday it's six

Sometimes on a Sunday

All dependin' on whatever kind of mood he's in

I keep his glass filled up with Sherry

And sing him all his favorite songs

If a tear comes to his eye he

May let a month go by

Before he takes away my key

Oh that Sherry starts to taste real good to me

Hey Mama look at me

On Panic Beach

I may be hungry but my rent is free

Up on Panic Beach

I can almost see the Palace

No longer outta reach

So I'll do my time

Then say goodbye to Panic Beach

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Goodbye goodbye yeah
