Twenty-five Hearts

Lyrics

[Intro] Brendan, Brendan, what a scene! Twenty-five hearts in his tambourine! [Verse 1] Brendan steps in, fixing his tie, Twenty-five boys all catch his eye. One brings chai, one brings a grin, He says, “My friends, let the fun begin!” [Pre-Chorus] From Mumbai streets to Leicester town, They turn the whole bazaar around. He counts to ten, then starts once more— Twenty-five are waiting at the door! [Chorus] Oh, Brendan, Brendan, what can you do? Twenty-five sweethearts all calling for you! Hand in hand, they spin through the night, He can’t get enough of that merry delight! Brendan, Brendan, the whole gang’s in view, Twenty-five boyfriends, and each one loves you! [Verse 2] One loves cricket, one loves the dance, One tells a joke and makes him laugh. They share a plate, they share a song, With Brendan, every night’s a festival long. [Pre-Chorus] He tries to leave, they cheer, “Stay!” He says, “Just one more round, okay?” The dhol goes dum, the lanterns sway, Twenty-five have planned his day! [Chorus] Oh, Brendan, Brendan, what can you do? Twenty-five sweethearts all calling for you! Hand in hand, they spin through the night, He can’t get enough of that merry delight! Brendan, Brendan, the whole gang’s in view, Twenty-five boyfriends, and each one loves you! [Bridge] No need to choose, no need to race, There’s room for every smiling face. A toast to love, both bold and true— Brendan’s got a whole parade of you! [Instrumental Dance Break] [Final Chorus] Oh, Brendan, Brendan, what can you do? Twenty-five sweethearts all calling for you! Hand in hand, they spin through the night, He can’t get enough of that merry delight! Brendan, Brendan, sing it once more— Twenty-five boyfriends, dancing on the floor! [Outro] Brendan, Brendan, what a scene! Twenty-five hearts in his tambourine!
