In a picture frame
I know you are a Lady
Nobody knows your name
Lady from the Orient in a council flat
She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back
If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away
Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday
Staring at my masterpiece
The boys all read Parade
Chong Sam and red lipstick
Her skin a precious jade
Lady from the Orient in a council flat
She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back
If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away
Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday
Mass produced the daydream
Or should I pay the rent?
Breakout of the concrete
Set sail for Orient
Lady from the Orient in a council flat
She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back
If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away
Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday
Dry your eyes Salomé
Mona Lisa too
Lady in the picture frame
My heart belongs too you
Lady from the Orient in a council flat
She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back
If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away
Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday
Lady from the Orient in a council flat
She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back
If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away
Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday
A window to the Orient In a picture frame I know you are a Lady Nobody knows your name Lady from the Orient in a council flat She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday Staring at my masterpiece The boys all read Parade Chong Sam and red lipstick Her skin a precious jade Lady from the Orient in a council flat She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday Mass produced the daydream Or should I pay the rent? Breakout of the concrete Set sail for Orient Lady from the Orient in a council flat She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday Dry your eyes Salomé Mona Lisa too Lady in the picture frame My heart belongs too you Lady from the Orient in a council flat She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday Lady from the Orient in a council flat She never looks me in the eye, she never answers back If I could buy a ticket, I'd gladly run away Ride in on the trade wind and marry you someday Explain Request ×
