Church - Ritz Lyrics
By steve harley / *****ney rebelHark to roualts white insanity,Clowns in drag concealing vanity,This is hardly paradise,Were still in search of petty scorn.Images so dead in mourning,Clap and cheer the man performing,This is hardly paradise,Were still in search of petty scorn.Couch my disease in chintz-covered kisses,Glazed calico cloth, my costume this is,Come to pablo fanques in indigo,Well show you pastel shades of rhyme.Take a letter, ophelia, writeSorry desdemona bright,Peeking through the nimbus covers,We see the twisted tale of man.Catch us in the cornfield hiding,Me, maryse and moonbeams gliding,Peeking through the nimbus covers,We see the twisted tale of man.Careless, caress, curl up beside me,Visit, sleep and smile, and drown me,March together, slay like nero,Well show you something you understand(originally this was now we have something you understand.)Oh! the clown, his stare is eyeless,Shall he make you laugh or cry, yes,March together, slay like nero,Well show you something you understand.The other verses are from the *****ney rebel original version. Ive left them in for general interest. also steve and marty performed the whole thing live at least once.It is time to hide my body,Shall we start to speak of holly,I dont wanna be that superhero,til you have something we understand.Heard theyre moving pisces into june,Shall we put together a platoon,I dont wanna be that superhero,til you have something we understand.
