Marc Almond – The Dancing Marquis Lyrics
Artist: Marc Almond
Song: The Dancing Marquis
When I was a child I made a crown
Of silver paper and sticky tape
Adorned it with old Christmas things
To make a crown fit for a king
A secret shared by only me
A world adorned in fantasy
Ruled by me
Rich and free
So smother me in Ambergris
Make a perfume out of me
Bergamot and Vetiver
Put your face in my bouquet
Inhale me
The dancing marquis
School it taught me to be grey
To throw all of my dreams away
It didn’t have a lot to say to me
I never needed any lesson
Except the one to put a drеss on
Don’t need a priest for my confession
You’ll see
So smother mе in Ambergris
Make a perfume out of me
Bergamot and Vetiver
Put your face in my bouquet
Inhale me
The dancing marquis
A snake dance of the seven veils
A sailing ship with satin fails
A Hermes hat with seagull wings
I made a crown fit for a king
Didn’t have a care or sorrow
Not a thought about tomorrow
Never begged or ever barrowed anything
‘Cause I was king
So smother me in Ambergris
Make a perfume out of me
Bergamot and Vetiver
Put your face in my bouquet
Inhale me
The dancing marquis
So smother me in Ambergris
Make a perfume out of me
Bergamot and Vetiver
Put your face in my bouquet
Inhale me
The dancing marquis
