Olympia

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh no, Olympia said she loves me Olympia said she needs me But what about all the marquis? No, not them Because they're all so autocratic There's something pale underneath the beat A white innocence marked by lecherous men I thought I'd suffer in the city heat I thought I'd suffer, now let's hope to begin again [Pre-Chorus] If they could see Modern Venus Tender and frail Hell, she's nervous But she's the best in all of Paris At aching and breaking hearts [Chorus] And oh lord Is heaven such a fine thing We're floating in a dead town Hoping to find someone to be near And we'll fly away Holding onto something We're drifting in a dull sound Hoping to find someone who will hear [Verse 2] Oh no, Olympia said she loves me Olympia said she needs me But what about all the marquis? No, not them Because they're all so autocratic I can't invest with this currency A blind diligence wrapped and bowed with a lie But still we stay for the company But still we stay 'cause we don't wanna ever die [Pre-Chorus] If they could see Modern Venus Tender and frail Hell, she's nervous But she's the best in all of Paris At aching and breaking hearts [Chorus] And oh lord Is heaven such a fine thing We're floating in a dead town Hoping to find someone to be near And we'll fly away Holding onto something We're drifting in a dull sound Hoping to find someone who will hear [Bridge] I already know, I already know, I already know, I already know I already know, I already know, I already know [Chorus] And oh lord Is heaven such a fine thing We're floating in a dead town Hoping to find someone to be near And we'll fly away Holding onto something We're drifting in a dull sound Hoping to find someone who will hear And oh lord Is heaven such a fine thing We're floating in a dead town Hoping to find someone to be near And we'll fly away Holding onto something We're drifting in a dull sound Hoping to find someone who will hear
