Presenting Lily Mars |
| Presenting Lily Mars |
| Tap dancer, a soon-to-be star |
| She’ll beat your heart so fast |
| Spotlight’s on Lily tonight |
| She’s on Channel One’s late night show |
| She’s watching people come and go |
| Producer says, «You've got it made, girl» |
| And when she’s lying sleepless in his arms |
| The frost paints roses on poor Lily’s window pane |
| Presenting Lily’s mum |
| She still lives on in Lily’s mind |
| Stopped ageing years ago |
| Now she’s gone but left her dreams in Lily’s eyes |
| Lily’s wondering if mummy’s watching her tonight |
| «Good morning,» says father Mars |
| Presenting a salesman’s cheerful face |
| His mouth is never shut |
| As he strides from door to door to door to door |
| Watch his face as he puts his foot in my door |
| Presenting Lily Mars |
| She’s sensing moons and stars |
| The pills that Doc subscribed |
| Will keep the sleepless, dreamless nights away |
| Oh, poor Lily, now you’re sleeping day by day |
| By day by day by day by day |
| Bye, bye |
| Poor Lily, mummy’s watching you tonight |
