Madame Ray - The Long Blondes

Give me a polaroid picture???

till you fit in my pocket

Now paste it into my heart shaped locket

Eventually I???

ll cheat on every man I meet

I know I cant help it Buy me a drink and I will tell you my name

I???

m a rose petal fallen from a mainline train

Always there to touch but just out of reach

I know you can???

t help it in the way you write my name

An object of destruction made for Madame Ray

Ooh oh, i???

ll be your apprentice

Ooh oh, i???

m still in my 20s

Eyes from a portrait of one whose love could see no more,

You cant keep her captive, on your wall

Left New York but drew my outline

On a ticket back to london

Whitewashed all my boyfriends features

Sola rising future pictures

Lie behind a camera past the city music hall,

Madame Ray will sit me high above you all

Left New York but drew my outline

On a record sleeve in brooklyn

Whitewashed three years of existence

Sola rising future pictures

Man let go, he couldn???

t keep her

Locks of hair on artist???

s scissors

Traces of unseen love rivals

Sola rising into pictures

I am forever being put away

and i am always in reserve (x2)

Always in reserve

Materials indestructible

Forever being put away

Taken for a ride, put on the spot

The locket must go on

I am always in reserve

I am forever being put away

and i am always in reserve (x4)
