Mother Of Pearl ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Turn the lights down Way down low Turn up the music Hi as fi can go All the gang´s here Everyone you know It´s a crazy scene Hey there just look over your shoulder Get the picture?No no no no .......(Yes)
Walk a tight-rope Your life-sign-line Such a bright hope Right place, right time What´s your number? Never you mind Take a powder But hang on a minute what´s coming round the corner Have you future? No no no no .......(Yes)
Well I´ve been up all night again Party-time wasting is too much fun
Then I step back thinking Of life´s inner meaning And my latest fling
It´s the same old story All love and glory It´s a pantomime
If you´re looking for love In a looking glass world It´s pretty hard to find
Oh mother of pearl I wouldn´t trade you For another girl
Divine intervention Always my intention So I take my time
I´ve been looking for something I always wanted But was never mine
But now I´ve seen that something Just out of reach - glowing - Very Holy grail
Oh mother of pearl Lustrous lady Of a scared world
Thus: even Zarathustra Another-time-loser Could believe in you
With every goddess a let down Every idol a bring you down It gets you down
But the search for perfection Your own predilection Goes on and on and on and on
Canadian Club love A place in the Country Everyone´s ideal
But you are my favorita And a place in your heart dear Makes me feel more real
Oh mother of pearl I wouldn´t change you For the whole world
You´re highbrow, holy With lots of soul Melancholy shimmering
Serpentine sleekness Was always my weakness Like a simple tune
But no dilettante Filigree fancy Beats the plastic you
Career girl cover Exposed and another Slips right into-view
Oh looking for love In a looking glass world Is pretty hard for you
Few throwaway kisses The boomerang misses Spin round and round
Fall on feather-bed quilted Faced with silk Softly stuffed eider down
Take refuge in pleasure Just give me your future We´ll forget your past
Oh mother of pearl Submarine lover In a shrinking world
Oh lonely dreamer Your choked provokes A picture cameo
Oh mother of pearl So so semi-precious In your detached world
Oh mother of pearl I wouldn´t trade you For another girl
