Young Cleopatra



Xtc - Young Cleopatra - Текст песни

I see them offering you gum

I hear the swarming schoolkids hum

A tribe of polyester warriors spellbound

They bring you offerings to please

Like cigarettes or new lps

Youll have them on their knees and begging

Just to play with your comb

One glance from those two eyes

Will seal your playground empire

My oh my, what a sight for sore eyes, young cleopatra

My oh my, what a wonderful prize, young cleopatra

Youll never be a queen unless you do as youre told

You wouldnt understand it being fourteen years old

Dont ever give your love for free

But then again, dont even let it be sold

You have your teachers in a trap

Theres no age limit or no gap

To who you set alight with firebombs, .........

Im glad your father is my friend

And now that school is at an end

Hes only an excuse for me

To wait here at your palace gates

One glance from those two eyes

Will seal your playground empire

Your school uniform looks grey on others and silver on you

Your yellow wooden rule a golden sceptre to prove its true

Youre at the youth club near the drums

The young guitarist buzzer strums

Anything his royal majesty wishes

Your borrowed perfume fills the air

Pale nostrils start to flare

Its more than some can bear

But this is your court and they are your dogs

One glance from those two eyes

Will seal your playground empire
