Oh I can fix that for you:
At the Copa (CO!), Copacabana (Copacabana)
The hottest spot north of Havana (here)
At the Copa (CO!), Copacabana
Music and passion were always the fashion
At the Copa....she lost her love
C;mon, sigh, you have more refined tastes than that to make that statement. How the composer walks up a 7th scale with "Him, HIm, Him" and then starts walking back down. "Whatcha' gonna' do about him. Blah blah blah blah him". ANd then back up. Him, Him, Him ...
That's the type complex composition that going to stand the test of time right there. Bach and his fugues have nothing on that.

I have a Pandora station based on "Baby Come Back" and I've gone to sleep listening to it a few times. I know, it's lame.

"I just want everyone watching this to know right now: I do not like Pina Coladas. Do not come up to me and ask me if I like Pina Coladas. Do not order me a Pina Colada if you see me in public. I will throw it back in your face. I [expletive] hate pina coladas."
To me, that's like Adolph Eichmann saying he was just following orders.
Rupert Holmes committed an atrocity, people. "Escape" is the perfect example of what Hannah Arendt called the banality of evil. But evil it is, and some international tribunal needs to haul his ass into court so that justice is served, and he can be summarily executed.
