Matador Lyrics

Meet me at the Matador

I'll be there just after 4

We'll scrape our boots across the wooden floor

Once again

Charmaine arrives after last call

Lets the drunks and the punks into the hallowed hall

Where the famous and those hiding from the law

Are welcomed in

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Don't tear the grand old lady of Dovercourt

Don't tear it down, don't tear it down, don't tear it down

The guitar splashes into the alleyway

We all love to listen to Johnnie Lovesin play

Rocker boys play George Jones that way

Loud and in your face

Bazil passed out in a folding chair

Ann Dunn cut off his new-wave hair

Put it in a frame above the stairs

Leading to the stage

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Don't tear the grand old lady of Dovercourt

Don't tear it down, don't tear it down, don't tear it down

When Jeanne would dance, we all would watch

Kitty Galore in a cowboy top

Zeta sold chilli and the hottest dogs

They never seem to age

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Tear it down, don't tear it down

Don't tear the grand old matriarch of Dovercourt

Don't tear it down, don't tear it down, down tear it down
