I BOUGHT A SEQUINED SUIT FROM A PEARLY QUEEN
AND SHE COULD DRINK MORE WINE THAN I'D EVER SEEN
SHE HAD SOME GYPSIES' BLOOD FLOWING THROUGH HER FEET
AND WHEN THE TIME WAS RIGHT SHE SAID THAT I WOULD MEET
MY DESTINY
I TRAVELED ROUND THE WORLD TO FIND THE SUN
I COULDN'T STOP MYSELF FROM HAVING FUN
AND THEN ONE DAY I MET AN INDIAN GIRL
AND SHE MADE ME FORGET THIS TROUBLED WORLD
WE'RE LIVING IN
I HAD A STRANGE DREAM. IN MY HAIR
I SAW A PEARLY QUEEN LYING THERE
AND ALL AROUND HER FEET FLOWERS BLOOMED
BUT THEY WERE MADE OF SILK AND SEQUINS TWO BY TWO
