Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, no
Olympia says she loves me
Olympia says she needs me
But what about all the marquis?
No, not them
Because they're all so autocratic
There's something pale underneath the beat
A white innocence marked by lecherous men
I thought I'd suffer in the city heat
I thought I'd suffer now
Let's hope to begin again
[Verse 2]
If they could see it
Modern Venus, tender and frail
Hell, she's nervous
But she's the best in all of Paris
At aching and breaking hearts
[Verse 3]
And, oh Lord
Is heaven such a fine thing?
We're floating in a dead town
Hoping to find someone to be near
And we'll fly away
Holding onto something
We're drifting in a dull sound
Hoping to find someone who will hear
[Verse 4]
Oh, no
Olympia says she loves me
Olympia says she needs me
But what about all the marquis?
No, not them
Because they're all so autocratic
I can't invest in this currency
A blind diligence wrapped and bowed with a lie
But still we stand for the company
But still we stand 'cause we don't wanna ever die
[Verse 5]
If they could see
Modern Venus, tender and frail
Hell, she's nervous
But she's the best in all of Paris
At aching and breaking hearts
[Verse 6]
And, oh Lord
Is heaven such a fine thing?
We're floating in a dead town
Hoping to find someone to be near
And we'll fly away
Holding onto something
We're drifting in a dull sound
Hoping to find someone who will hear
[Verse 7]
I already know, I already know
I already know, I already know
I already know, I already know
I already know
[Verse 8]
And, oh Lord
Is heaven such a fine thing?
We're floating in a dead town
Hoping to find someone to be near
And we'll fly away
Holding onto something
We're drifting in a dull sound
Hoping to find someone who will hear
[Verse 9]
And, oh Lord
Is heaven such a fine thing?
We're floating in a dead town
Hoping to find someone to be near
And we'll fly away
Holding onto something
We're drifting in a dull sound
Hoping to find someone who will hear
