Mother Of Pearl Lyrics

Turn the lights downWay down lowTurn up the musicHi as fi can goAll the gang´s hereEveryone you knowIt´s a crazy sceneHey there just look over your shoulderGet the picture?No no no no .......(Yes)Walk a tightropeYour life-sign-lineSuch a bright hopeRight place, right timeWhat´s your number?Never you mindTake a powderBut hang on a minute what´s coming round the corner?Have you a future?No no no no .......(Yes)Well I´ve been up all night againParty-time wasting is too much funThen I step back thinkingOf life´s inner meaningAnd my latest flingIt´s the same old storyAll love and gloryIt´s a pantomimeIf you're looking for loveIn a looking glass worldIt's pretty hard to findOh mother of pearlI wouldn't trade youFor another girlDivine interventionAlways my intentionSo I take my timeI´ve been looking for somethingI've always wantedBut was never mineBut now I've seen that somethingJust out of reach - glowing -Very Holy grailOh mother of pearlLustrous ladyOf a sacred worldThus: even ZarathustraAnother-time-loserCould believe in youWith every goddess a let downEvery idol a bring downIt gets you downBut the search for perfectionYour own predilectionGoes on and on and on and onCanadian Club loveA place in the CountryEveryone's idealBut you are my favoritaAnd a place in your heart dearMakes me feel more realOh mother of pearlI wouldn't change youFor the whole worldYou're highbrow, holyWith lots of soulMelancholy shimmeringSerpentine sleeknessWas always my weaknessLike a simple tuneBut no dilettanteFiligree fancyBeats the plastic youCareer girl coverExposed and anotherSlips right into-viewOh looking for loveIn a looking glass worldIs pretty hard for youFew throwaway kissesThe boomerang missesSpin round and roundFall on featherbed quiltedFaced with silkSoftly stuffed eider downTake refuge in pleasureJust give me your futureWe'll forget your pastOh mother of pearlSubmarine loverIn a shrinking worldOh lonely dreamerYour choker provokesA picture cameoOh mother of pearlSo so semi-preciousIn your detached worldOh mother of pearlI wouldn´t trade youFor another girl
