Lyrics
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
She gave herself, they took her to their hearts
Clapped their hands 'til sore, once more, eyes smart
Taxidermist gave life to Hugh
It sits and begs and stares at you
Since when did you cook breakfast for
Lieutenant Paul in ruined mirador?
This lease on life can tie you down
So precious is the jagged crown
Talk to me, I'll stay these vagabond nights
Walk with me, someone is waiting in light
Exchanging worlds, arranging days
To suit a lover who'll never want to stay
Breakfast skies bring curtains down
Upon a crumbling lacquered gown
A crumbling lacquered gown
Ooh, talk to me as to these vagabond nights
Walk with me, someone is waiting in light
