Hotel de France and Poetry Lyrics – Marc Almond

Singer: Marc Almond
Title: Hotel de France and Poetry

Opium and a Chinese lantern
The light like a goldfish
Swims in a red dish
The trash I’ve picked up

Sitting on the floor
Counting out cash
A sailor cap
Hanging on the door

The pearls I’ve retrieved
Belong in the back of a mirror
My songs about sunken wrecks
And a drowned sailor

The light between the islands
Is the colour of Bengal
White sands and if you listen
A silent waterfall

The pearls I’ve retrieved
Belong in the back of a mirror
My songs about sunken wrecks
And a drowned sailor

Thе torch singer sits
On horseback in the yard
Bits of rеd velvet dress
Ripped now times are hard

There’s a suicide and saint
In the final hotel
And paint on a red velvet dress
Rolled into a ball

The trash I’ve picked up
Leaves a trail of cash in the hall
The trash I’ve picked up
Leaves a trail of cash in the hall

The trash I’ve picked up
Leaves a trail of cash in the hall
The trash I’ve picked up
Leaves a trail of cash in the hall

The trash I’ve picked up
Leaves a trail of cash in the hall
The trash I’ve picked up
Leaves a trail of cash in the hall

Leaves a trail of cash in the hall
Leaves a trail of cash in the hall
