|
I bought a sequined suit from a pearly queen |
|
And she could drink more wine than |
|
I'd ever seen |
|
She had some gypsies' blood flowing through her feet |
|
And when the time was right she said that |
|
I would meet |
|
My destiny |
|
I traveled round the world to find the sun |
|
I couldn't stop myself from having fun |
|
And then one day |
|
I met an Indian girl |
|
And she made me forget this troubled world |
|
We're living in |
|
I had a strange dream. |
|
In my hair |
|
I saw a pearly queen lying there |
|
And all around her feet flowers bloomed |
|
But they were made of silk and sequins two by two |
