Extravagance

Extravagance - Kitchens of Distinction[00:00:00]

Who dares walk her cheetahs[00:00:22]

On the dark canals of Venice [00:00:25]

Diamond leashes glitter [00:00:29]

Servant flames splutter[00:00:32]

Emaciated spectre with kohl tattooed eyes[00:00:36]

Albino birds painted shades of blackened violet[00:00:43]

Luisa leash me up like a leopard to your heart[00:00:51]

Black though it be let's toast your effigy[00:00:58]

Dress you in silver mail fit for the Queens[00:01:06]

They cannot touch you now [00:01:12]

They cannot do you harm[00:01:16]

You are the shadow that pale light[00:01:21]

That draws us fluttering to your[00:01:28]

Extravagance[00:01:33]

We stare at the rubies that shine in our hearts[00:01:49]

They're all you could wish for [00:01:56]

They're all I could want[00:02:00]

Pink peacocks howling as[00:02:03]

We waltz through the night[00:02:07]

They screech of crazed parties [00:02:10]

Canopies of fright[00:02:14]

Luisa in Paris Luisa by the lake[00:02:19]

Sitting still in veils painted by the greats[00:02:25]

Even electricity bows down to her[00:02:33]

Until it catches flame and all the money escapes[00:02:40]

You remain a shadow that pale light[00:02:48]

That draws us flickering to your[00:02:55]

Extravagance[00:03:00]

Debt-ridden in London she's dressed in dead birds[00:03:32]

Abandoned by her poet denounced by the world[00:03:38]

But once a creature exotic she cannot be forgotten[00:03:45]

So bury her naked but don't bury her nameless[00:03:52]

Wrap her in panther skin her Pekinese beside[00:04:00]

Shakespearean elegy Shakespearean lines[00:04:07]

In and out of fashion in death no less intense[00:04:15]

She cannot wither now [00:04:21]

She cannot fade from sight[00:04:25]

She is but shadow that feint light[00:04:29]

That draws us shivering to her[00:04:37]

Extravagance[00:04:42]
