Lady Nina |
You pick out your credit cards and check into the night |
A dozen tequilas and you’re feeling alright |
So you swim to the disco, out of your depth, jaded gigolo |
Your lucky charms are tarnished so you leave alone |
But there’s one place left to go before the taxi home |
After all, you made your marks |
One night you’ll play elizabeth taylor |
The next night you’re marilyn monroe |
Forever kissing frogs that think they’re princes |
Oh lady nina, where did all the romance go? |
Your little sister babysits, your husband picks you up at six |
The make-up hides the bruises and the tears so they never show |
'cause your beauty is the only thing you’ve ever owned |
It’s the only way you’ve ever known to make your marks |
You made your marks, you made your marks |
We believe it’s for real |
Lady nina, I’d love to take you home with me |
But I love my wife and I love my family |
I’ve got a good job, responsibilities |
And I need to keep respect from society |
I know you’ll never act with me, I know that you’re in love with me |
So how do I compare to the sailors of the ships of the night? |
Was I all right, did you come tonight, lady nina? |
You made your marks, you made your marks |
Ebony flowers pinned to a velvet cushion in a red light |
And edith piaf sings a lullaby for the night |
Just made your marks, just made your marks |
Just made your marks, just made your marks |
You made your marks |
Ebony flowers pinned to a velvet cushion in a red light |
And edith piaf sings a lullaby for the night |
Just made your marks, just made your marks |
You made your marks, and you made your marks |
Just made your marks, and you made your marks |
Just made your marks |
