Translation
Bilingual
The trains aren't running
The cabs aren't coming
But I am going to the Plaza Hotel
One mile down and seven to go
Seven to go
He needs to know
Though I'm not showing, a baby's growing
And I am going to the Plaza Hotel
One mile down and seven to go
Seven to go
Watch the road, asshole!
Who are you calling crazy?
I will kick his little Daisy
And I'll stick it to her that he's mine
And this baby here is genuine
Once he knows, he'll kick her out the door
We'll open up a bottle, hell! We'll open two!
He'll propose, I'll smile and say "Sure"
And presto! Poof!
My dreams have all come true
I will be a rich man's wife
With a rich man's baby
And be set for life
A debutant! A connoisseur!
Wait
What if I turn into her?
When the new shiny thing
Becomes the one who wears the ring
I am guessing I'll have two good years
Before another shiny thing appears!
One-way road
Is that what this is?
Have I travelled on it from a very early age?
One-way road
Where the choices are his
And it dead-ends in a cage
Tom may not be loyal, but with him I'm royalty
Do I let him break my heart and nose to gain security?
No dress
No ring
No party
No baby
Will ever set me free
The trains aren't running
The cabs aren't coming
And I'm not going to the Plaza Hotel!
Turn around, go back to George
Back to George
Back to home
He'll love this baby as his own
And soon we three will be million miles away
I know that George will love me come what may
God, it's so simple that it's funny!
The only choice is love or money
A one-way road
No matter what
