(Intro):
It takes two - it takes two
(Chorus A:)
It takes two to tango
For dancing, romancing, or making love
It takes two to tango
It's written up in heaven above
One - as a single - solo - unique
A game of solitaire - as in privacy
Like singular - mystique
Or first - as in winner - no partner - no crime
To be one in a million - or just one of a kind
But I know, for I've been to that place
Where you're singled out from the human race
And your body tells you it needs to hide
That road can lead you to suicide
(Chorus B):
It takes two to tango...
Let's blame it on the heavens above
Three - as in trinity - a cosy 'menage a trois'
Or a triangle of intrigue
With that certain je ne sais quoi'
Or just safety in numbers- from orgy to fashion
But three is a crowd - no matter what the action
For I know, I've been to that place
Where the single soul has a triple face
And your jealous heart will try to push it even further
Your mind can drift as far as murder
(Chorus C:)
It takes two to tango...
It's written up in heaven above
For dancing, romancing, or making love
Let's blame it on the heavens above
It takes two to tango
For dancing, romancing, or making love
It takes two to tango
It's written up in heaven above
Two to tango (tango)
Two to tango (tango)
Let's do the tango, and blame it on the heavens above
Let's blame it on the heavens above
