Purple Queen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She keeps Shiraz and Merlot In her velvet-lined cabinet 'Let them drink wine,' she sighs A modern-day aristocrat A soothing remedy For tension and anxiety (Ooh, ooh) At any time, a cocktail hour, exquisitely divine (Ooh, ooh) [Pre-Chorus] Oysters and macarons Her manners are never withdrawn Enchantingly wise and kind [Chorus] She's a purple queen Orchids and gasoline A velvet fist in a silver sheen (Pa-pa-pa-pa) Guaranteed to steal your scene (Anytime) Ooh, recommended, a vibrant dream Insatiable, a royal gleam Do you dare, my friend? [Verse 2] To avoid obligations She rarely stays in one domain In conversations She reigns like a sovereign again Met a duke in Moscow Swirled down to Rio somehow (Purple) Then quite by happenstance (Purple) If you're ready for the rain (She's a purple queen) [Pre-Chorus] Pearls came naturally from Bahrain (Naturally) For power, she couldn't feign Fastidious, but never mean [Chorus] She's a purple queen Orchids and gasoline A velvet fist in a silver sheen (Pa-pa-pa-pa) Guaranteed to steal your scene (Anytime) [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Drop of a smile, she's as tender as Purring like a pampered cat (Ooh) Then momentarily out of reach (Ooh) Temporarily under tact (Ooh, da-da) To utterly beguile (Beguile you) (Wild) She's woven her spell around you [Chorus] She's a purple queen Orchids and gasoline A velvet fist in a silver sheen (Pa-pa-pa-pa) Guaranteed to steal your scene (Anytime) Ooh, recommended, a vibrant dream Insatiable, a royal gleam Do you dare, my friend? [Outro] Dare, my friend?
