Marianne Faithfull - Madame George текст песни

Текст
Down the cyprus avenue

With child-like visions leaping into view,

A clicking clacking of the high-heeled shoes,

Ford and fitzroy, madame joy,

Marching with the soldier boy behind

Hes much older now with hat on, drinking wine

And that smell of sweet perfume comes drifting through

Early cool night air like shalimar.

Outside theyre making all the stops

Kids out in the street collecting bottle tops

Going for cigarettes and matches in the shops,

Happy thinking madame joy.

Oh, thats when you fall,

Oh, thats when you fall,

Yeah, thats when you fall.

When you fall into a trance

Sitting on a sofa playing games of chance,

With your folded arms in history books you glance

Into the eyes of madame joy.

And you think you found the bag,

Youre getting weaker and your knees begin to sag.

In the corner playing dominoes in drag

The one and only madame joy.

Outside the frosty window raps

She jumps up and says, "lord have mercy, I think that its the cops."

And immediately drops everything she gots

Down into the street below.

And you know you gotta go

On that train from dublin up to sandy row

Throwing pennies at the bridges down below

In the rain, hail, sleet and snow.

Say good-bye to madame joy,

Dry your eye for madame joy,

Wonder why for madame joy.

As you leave the room its filled with music,

Laughing music, dancing music all around the room

And all the little boys come around walking away from it all

So cool.

And youre about to leave she jumps and says, "hey love,

You forgot your glove."

And the love to love she loves to love the love

To love to love she loves to love the love to love

Say good-bye to madame joy,

Dry your eye for madame joy,

Wonder why for madame joy,

Dry your eye for madame joy.

In the wind and the rain, in the back street, in the back street,

In the back street, in the back street, in the back street,

Say good-bye to madame george.

Down home in the back street, in the back street,

Say good-bye, say good-bye to madame joy.
