Real Pandora

See how the saints go marching Past the pedants dancing in your head (?) And how the fools still rush in Back to the places angels fear to tread If you leave the door unguarded To your happiness You’ll open up a real Pandora And a hornet’s nest And I see that now If you invite desire Wouldn’t you think that lust would tag along And if you light that fire It won’t be extinguished by your loving song If you leave the door unguarded To your happiness You’ll open up a real Pandora And a hornet’s nest Oh, I see that now I see that now Don’t want to be that now I see that now Don’t want to be that now Another day is dawning And the dust is dancing in the air Head on my pillow, yawning With a hangover hanging over there I must have left the door unguarded In my idleness I’ve open up a real Pandora And a spider’s web Oh, I see that now I see that now Don’t want to be that now Well, I don’t want to be that now
