Palace versuri

Versuri Dave Dobbyn – Palace lyrics

Heroes, villains
Blue faded under glass
Bowtied men rip tickets to pieces

Semi-naked statues
Full wooden ashtrays
Curtained enclaves where mischief thrives

Red velvet, randy
Smell of corn candyfloss
Usherettes with torches frolic naked in the wings

Cellophane crackle
Movietone, old news
Lads on the front and around the empire

Cigar and Winston
In ruins of Berlin
Spitfire and anthem, news from abroad

We’re waiting for the lantern
The light of the dream
Gift-wrapped and evergreen picture palace

Now I close my eyes
Now I close my eyes…
