Clutching Your Pearls Songtext
Now you know what I meant when I wrote myself a letter
And I know what it said though the real thing never came
Bless my little soul
It's an old game
On the shore lay a physician
From the old days
Down with the ship in the Fifties
Washed up with the waves
And I know what it said though the real thing never came
Bless my little soul
It's an old game
On the shore lay a physician
From the old days
Down with the ship in the Fifties
Washed up with the waves
She asks what is life
If not a string of different pains
Caught you, clutching your pearls
Let your arms unfurl, [I know it's a]
I know it's a trick, [Come back to the]
Come back to the world
I was shocked by a bloodcurdling scream, in the distance
I was in such a state, I was in need of assistance
So now you know what it's like when you get back
To your warm housе
And the poison tucked up your sleeve didn't fall out
Spill it in your tеa
Hey! Hey! Hey!
And you called out
Caught you, clutching your pearls
Let those arms unfurl, (I know it's a)
I know it's a trick, (Come back to the) Come back to the world
If not a string of different pains
Caught you, clutching your pearls
Let your arms unfurl, [I know it's a]
I know it's a trick, [Come back to the]
Come back to the world
I was shocked by a bloodcurdling scream, in the distance
I was in such a state, I was in need of assistance
So now you know what it's like when you get back
To your warm housе
And the poison tucked up your sleeve didn't fall out
Spill it in your tеa
Hey! Hey! Hey!
And you called out
Caught you, clutching your pearls
Let those arms unfurl, (I know it's a)
I know it's a trick, (Come back to the) Come back to the world
