Words & music by Paul Simon 1982 Rene and Georgette Magritte With their dog after the war Returned to their hotel suite And they unlocked the door Easily losing their evening clothes They danced by the light of the moon To the Penguins the Moonglows The Orioles and The Five Satins The deep forbidden  music They’d been longing for Rene and Georgette Magritte With their dog after the war Rene and Georgette Magritte With their dog after the war Were strolling down Christopher Street When they stopped in a men’s store With all of the mannequins dressed in the style That brought tears to their immigrant eyes Just like The Penguins the Moonglows The Orioles and The Five Satins The easy stream of laughter     Flowing through the air Rene and Georgette Magritte With their dog après la guerre Side by side They fell  asleep Decades gliding by like Indians B#dim  |C#m7 | Time is cheap When they wake up they will find All their personal belongings Have inter--twined Oh-----Rene and Georgette Magritte With their dog after the war Were dining with the power élite And they looked in their bedroom drawer And what do you think They have hidden away In the cabinet cold of their hearts? The Penguins the Moonglows The Orioles and The Five Satins For now and ever    after     As it was before      Rene and Georgette Magritte With their dog after the war / | | | |/ |Ddim/ | |
