Brendan Perry - Songs of Disenchantment: Music from the Greek Underground

In The City’s Hammam

In the city's hammam
A harem takes a bath
Arab guards then take them to Ali Pasha

He orders the Arab guards
To bring the girls in front of him
Then he makes them dance and play the bouzouki
Play the bouzouki

He smokes a hookah
With Turkish hashish
And all the girls dance
The gypsy Tsifteteli
And all the girls dance
The gypsy Tsifteteli

That's the way of life
For all the world's pashas
Bouzoukis and hookahs
With hugs and kisses
With hugs and kisses

Bouzoukis and hookahs
With hugs and kisses
With hugs and kisses
