Elvis Costello - Miss Mary lyrics

Angels announce with trumpets Crown you with j**els and stars Hercules lives Next door to venus and mars Beside your pretty blue shoulder Something may trouble jerome Now that you're up with your friends I know you'll never come home Singing so babe, i know this song Miss mary i'm nothing without you Everything i've done is wrong Miss mary i try not to doubt you I walk in their brilliant parade Banish the primitive gloom Now i know where i can find you Hung up in some frenchman's room Pitiful magdalena for all to see Must have been beautiful So just show a little mercy to me Hey babe, i sing this song Miss mary i'm nothing without you Everything i've done is wrong Miss mary i try not to doubt you There at the foot of your staircase I stood to take in the scene All the ashes of roses The veined steps of marble Purple, gold and green Oh i wish you were my queen They only want to possess you Lock you away in a vault Such a heavenly vision And dress you up in blue I guess it's not their fault I know this song Miss mary i'm nothing without you Everything i've done is wrong Miss mary i try not to doubt you So babe, i sing this song Miss mary i'm nothing without you Everything i've done is wrong Miss mary i try not to doubt you
