Lyrics The Silent Comedy – California Queen

Bulbs will burst loud
Flood and f‌leet
Send their curse down
On satin sheets

And the California Queen
Is staring silent off the screen
And everyone is trying to be
The California Queen

Golden turnstile
Velvet leash
Feeling worthwhile
Razor clean
Awful pretty aren’t you
Like a needle in the stream

And the California Queen
Is staring silent off the screen
Gathered up her memories
And sold them to the sea
The secrets that she needs are leaving
Marks under her sleeves
And everyone is dying to be
Everyone is dying to be
The California Queen
The California Queen
The California Queen
The California Queen

Awful pretty aren’t you
You’re so pretty aren’t you
