Cleopatra Jones |
The people I was with said you were |
Nothing but a fag hag and a dope fiend |
But the song of your eyes |
Was of the loneliest woman I’ve ever seen |
We talked drunkenly at the bar |
I thought there’s a sweetness here |
The world is missing |
You just got fired and now you’re out |
High and drunk and celebrating |
Cleopatra Jones |
If they don’t see you then they’re blind |
Cleopatra Jones |
Liquor and love and everything that’s kind |
Always kind to strangers |
But you know enough never to look back |
You never know if they’re about to |
Pour salt in the knife wound on your back |
People in this bar are all smiles |
But that doesn’t mean they’ll give you |
The air you need to breathe |
When the show’s over |
They’ll take a big part of you |
When they decide to leave |
Cleopatra Jones |
She can kung fu just like Hercules |
Cleopatra Jones |
Leaves evil men on their knees |
Cleopatra only answers to a higher source from above |
A sensitivity to bright light |
And an unfounded belief in love |
And a soul a little bigger |
A little bigger than politeness can endure |
Lighter than air and harder to hold |
And much much bluer |
Much bluer |
Cleopatra Jones |
Is in exile with a lot of class |
Cleopatra Jones |
Teach me how to kick a little ass |
Cleopatra Jones |
Scales of justice under her head wrap |
Cleopatra Jones |
Crown of thorns, wears it like a nightcap |
