Empress’s Clothes [The Margin]

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She's here now, perfume coiled like a thuggie scarf – Such a powerful drug to make you so naked and clean [Chorus] And you want to tell her So much to disclose This idea you've got to sell her A new set of empress's clothes [Verse 2] Who was that woman in the masquerade? Do those eyes still give you fever? Who was that woman in the mystery-play? Do you still want to please her? Where is the woman who can offer еscape? Do you look for your freedom? [Chorus] Oh you see her (Yeah) You want to tеll her There's so much to disclose This... this idea you've got to sell her [Verse 3] You want her to wear that finery The style that's never seen You're trying to break the deadlock Of this strangleholding scene... Oh look, a new set of empress's clothes! [Verse 4] The here and now stands in your way; Oh you carry the bell, book and candle... She won't make you go But she won't let you stay [Chorus] And you want to tell her So much to disclose This... this idea that you've been trying to sell her That's just a new set of empress's clothes [Verse 5] You want her, you want her That style that's never seen; You're trying, you're trying This strangleholding scene; She makes you want to [?] it all – You don't know what it means But only she makes you see [Outro] Empress's clothes Empress's clothes Empress's clothes A new set of empress's clothes Empress's clothes A new set of empress's clothes Empress's Empress's Empress's clothes
