Gina in the Kings Road

Lyrics

Gina in the King's Road, 1968 Blonde hair and eyeshadow, hyperventilate Purple leather mini, legs up to there Don't you cast aspersions on that naugahyde affair [Chorus] And she can make you believe You're feeling almost sincere And every day's New Years Eve She's giggling in your ear And yet she's so hard to reach Although she's so close at hand I'm like the wave on a beach Sinking in the sand Everyone went out with her, everyone knew why No one ever stayed around, no one ever tried Now Gina drowns her sorrows, and drinks away the night She's wrapped around some stranger, hanging on for life [Chorus] And she can make you believe You're feeling almost sincere And every day's New Years Eve She's laughing in your ear And yet she's so hard to reach Although she's so close at hand I'm like the wave on a beach Sinking in the sand Now Gina in the King's Road, in a raincoat shimmering white Hands thrust in her pockets like Julie Christie might Looks up into the distance, and puckers up her lips I don't stop to talk to her, we're just passing ships [Chorus] She can make you believe You're feeling almost sincere And every day's New Years Eve She's talking in your ear And yet she's so hard to reach Although she's so close at hand I'm like the wave on a beach Sinking in the sand
