lyrics

I'D LOSE A TOE
(words and music by E.P. Schwartz)

For one night with her
I'd lose a toe
her love would be worth it
this I know
take a week off my life
if I could just taste her lips
hell, take two
if I could just touch her hips

Who do I call to make this trade
Bring me the bill so it can be paid

I'd lose a toe
for one night with her

I don't have much
Universe, but let's make a deal
take what you want from me
but just make this real
I don't believe in karma
but do me a solid just once
one magic night
that's not asking too much

It's not a thing I think I deserve
but, Universe, could you throw me a curve

I'd lose a toe
for one night with her

There's no contract I wouldn't sign
to know her love for a moment in time

I'd lose a toe
for one night with her

For one night with her
I'd lose a toe
to have her love me forever
I'd probably sell my soul
put myself into hock
to feel her body next to mine
to know that she loved me
for a few hours one night

In the moonlight, I wait at the crossroads
but the Devil, he never shows

I'd lose a toe
for one night with her
