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 |
