Pearls and Coffins
Lyrics
Ooh, child of moon child of light
So you sold your soul in the dead of night?
Headlong into mystery love, war and greed
In the grand bazaar
In the garden of the queen
Ooh, what a wonderful scheme
All you gave me, pearls and coffins
In your usual soulless fashion
I was looking for heart and passion
But all you gave to me
Was pearls and coffins
Bridge across the valley arrows from the sun
You crossed me in the gully
In the mist of Avalon poison filled the air
The battle had begun machineguns blazing on
But strange, there was no sound
Ooh, and you left me for dead
All you gave me, pearls and coffins
In your usual soulless fashion
I was looking for heart and passion
But all you gave to me
Was pearls and coffins
Ooh, child of moon child of light
So you sold your soul in the dead of night?
Headlong into mystery love, war and greed
In the grand bazaar
In the garden of the queen
Aah, what a wonderful scheme
All you gave me, pearls and coffins
In your usual soulless fashion
I was looking for heart and passion
But all you gave to me
Was pearls and coffins
