Lyrics
The straight jacket of true love's fine ? bang, bang
If you're Houdini in your spare time ? bang, bang
Lord Nel and Lady Hamilton they fought for love
When he come home from the war he gave her what for love
The mighty fall when love has called

Vampire friends desire to lust fang fang
They fall on necks then fall in love pang pang
The Marquis de Sade was happy with a stoke of love
Sherlock Holmes alone preferred a little toke of love

Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang, the mighty fall

Tony and Cleo struck out for the free down Egypt's way
But Caesar had squeezed her in Rome on his quilt for a day
Hey, hey

Now Anton got really angry
Oh oh Caesar's hanky panky
She told em she would use em
And boy did she abuse em
Fall in love and blew em away

Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang

And Sam and Delilah they both we should file under fool
'cause when the temple start to crumble
Sammy for his comb did fumble
Life was in a ruin, she loved Johnny Fruin
Fall in love and blew em away

Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang
Bang, bang
Bang, bang
Bang, bang
Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
Bang, bang, the mighty fall
Bang, bang, when love has called
