Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Catalogue princess, apprentice  seductress
 hiding in her  cellophane world in glitter town.
 Awaiting the prince in het  white Capri
 dynamic young tarzan  courts the bedsit queen.
 She's playing the actress in this  bedroom scene,
 she's learning her lines from glossy  magazines.
 Stringing all her pearls from her  childhood dreams,
 auditioning for the leading role on the  silver screen.
 Patience my tinsel  angel.
 Patience my perfumed  child.
 One  day they'll really  love you.
 You will  charm them with that  smile.
 But for  now
 It's just another Chelsea  Monday
 Chelsea  Monday! .
 
 Drifting with her  incense in the
 labyrinth of  London.
 Playing games with  faces in the
 neon wonderland .
 Perform  to scattered  shadows on the
 shattered cobbled  aisles.
 Would she  dare recite soliloquies  at the
 risk of stark applause?
 To Chelsea  Monday.
 She'll  pray for endless  Sundays,
 as she  enters saffron  sunsets.
 Conjure phantom  lovers from the
 tattered shreds of  dawn.
 Fulfilled  and yet forgotten
 the  St Tropez mirage.
 Fragrant aphrodisiac,
 the  withered tuberose.
 Patience my tinsel  angel.
 Patience my perfumed  child.
 One  day they'll really  love you.
 You will  charm them with that  smile.
 But for  now
 It's just another  Chelsea Monday  Sweet Chelsea
 Monday!
