Madame Pompadour - Jason Collett

she flies

right into the bedroom wall

she’s blinded herself again

madame pompadour

in electric candlelight

and the stereo lullabies

make her sleep and dream of more

madade pompadour

and she tries and tries

though she can’t seem to find

just what it is

she is looking for

she flies so high

then just like all the other times

she crashes to the floor

and she buys

oh yeah, she buys

but she can’t afford the price

of all she’s paying for

somewhere east of eden

and west of rome

she’s trying to find

her super bowl

she spies and she spies

through every keyless hole

madame pompadour

and she can’t begin

and she can’t get out

and she can’t convince herself

she’s anything but bored

and her cheshire grin

can really lure you out

but she’s wearing thin

madame pompadour

somewhere east of eden

and west of rome

she’s trying to find

her super bowl

madame pompadour
