Billy Baxter

I want to be like Billy Baxter

and lose my limitations

I want to be like Billy Baxter

and do imitations

Billy's got a thousand faces

he's a lover and a gambler too

Just to see him go through his paces

is a lesson for all the crew

'Coz he got a hungry heart

He got love to burn

'Coz he got a hungry heart

He got love to burn

Billy's in love with abandon

but he never seems to lose control

He can walk right through disaster

everyone in pieces but he's still whole

I want to be like Billy Baxter

and lose my limitations

I want to be like Billy Baxter

and do imitations

'Coz he got a hungry heart

He got love to burn

'Coz he got a hungry heart

He got love to burn

Hold it steady Billy

while I pour the wine

When you think you're ready Billy

play that pantomime for me one time

I want to be like Billy Baxter

I want to be like Billy Baxter

I want to be like Billy Baxter

I want to be like Billy Baxter
