The Nude Polka Kings - Pigtail Polka

 

The Nude Polka Kings continue there composing efforts towards covering anything imaginable with a polka! This time it's pig tails. Not the kind on a real pig (although even that may be a subject for a polka in the future), but the hairstyle worn by women.  As the only nude polka band in the country, they have probably seen their share of body types and hairstyles, a vast number of subjects for polkas from this creative bunch of polka nuts! This polka slowly gets faster and faster until anyone still dancing at the end of it is going at a pretty good clip. The pig tails would be flying!

They just began their tour of nude polka venues, and believe it or not, they always sell out! We still are gobsmacked that there are so many fans of dancing in the nude! Of course, it must be remembered that the polka culture also embraces all kinds of Eastern European cuisine, and nothing goes better with that than beer! So like many off-beat occurrences, alcohol is involved. And we know that the Slavic heart is open and welcoming, so add that with an alcohol-lubricated mood, perhaps it isn't so strange. 

 
Pretty young girls dance in the Polka Hall 
Dancing and spinning without a care
Golden hair tied in perfect twists 
In pig tailed glory with ribbons fair 
 
 Oh they twirl in their dresses tonight
 As the band plays a happy song 
Young men compete to dance with them 
The song is short, the night is long 
 
 Their feet tap fast on the floor boards 
Rhythms in time with the band 
Accordions sing and the tuba growls 
The couples dance hand in hand 
 
Oh they twirl in their dresses tonight
 As the band plays a happy song 
Young men compete to dance with them 
The song is short, the night is long 
 
 Clarinets sing of the old country 
Slavic memories fill the hall 
Each girl has a handsome partner 
They look in their eyes and start to fall
 
 Oh they twirl in their dresses tonight 
Some older ones will soon be out of them 
They'll sneak away with their partners 
We were young once, so won't condemn! 
 
The younger girls are watched real close
 By parents and chaperones 
They're way too young to start to make
 Any little baby Slavic clones! 
 
 The old Mamas have the keenest eyes 
To watch out that they don't get the chance 
They know just what to look for, indeed they do 
To make sure that their daughters only dance
