Deceptively fun and funky beat hiding a tragic story of lost love and madness like the fake gum that contains a mouse trap mechanism if you try to take a stick. Where was Lola's community? Her family? Was she cast out for becoming a showgirl? Surely she must have been loved if she was allowed to remain at the club even after it became a disco. But that love mustn't have been enough. Tony must have been a great guy. The extended version of this track has a weird line about having a banana because Manilow ran out of words to rhyme with Cabana and it really fucks with the immersion a bit.
