ThWhen I was a child I made a crown |
|
Of silver paper and sticky tape |
|
Adorned it with old Christmas things |
|
To make a crown fit for a king |
|
A secret shared by only me |
|
A world adorned in fantasy |
|
Ruled by me |
|
Rich anf free |
|
So smother me in Ambergris |
|
Make a perfume out of me |
|
Bergamont and Vetiver |
|
Put your face in my bouquet |
|
Inhale me |
|
The dancing marquis |
|
School it taught me to be grey |
|
To throw all of my dreams away |
|
It didn't have a lot to say to me |
|
I never needeed any leson |
|
Except the one to put a dress on |
|
Don't need a priest for my confession |
|
You'll see |
|
So smother me in Ambergris |
|
Make a perfume out of me |
|
Bergamont and Vetiver |
|
Put your face in my bouquet |
|
Inhale me |
|
The dancing marquis |
|
A snake dance of the seven veils |
|
A sailing ship with satin fails |
|
A Hermes hat with seagull wings |
|
I made a crown fit for a king |
|
Didn't have a care or sorrow |
|
Not a thought about tomorrow |
|
Never begged or ever barrowed anythyng |
|
'Cause I was king |
|
So smother me in Ambergris |
|
Make a perfume out of me |
|
Bergamont and Vetiver |
|
Put your face in my bouquet |
|
Inhale me |
|
The dancing marquis |
|
So smother me in Ambergris |
|
Make a perfume out of me |
|
Bergamont and Vertiver |
|
Put your face in my bouquet |
|
Inhale me |
|
The dancing marquis |
