Funny thing was she had a smile on her face
One day they really love you, you'll charm them with that smile
One day they really love you, you'll charm them with that smile
But for now it's just another Chelsea Monday
Fished a young chick out of the old father
She was only dreaming
She was only dreaming
What a waste
Fragrant aphrodisiac, the withered tuberose
Dynamic young Tarzan courts the bedsit queen
She's learning her lines from glossy magazines
Stringing all her pearls from her childhood dreams
Chelsea Monday
Patience my tinsel angel, patience my perfumed child
Chelsea Monday
Awaiting the prince in his white Capri
Conjure phantom lovers from the tattered shreds of dawn
She said she wanted to be an actress or something
Auditioning for the leading role on the silver screen
Nobody knows where she came from, where she was going
Drifting with her incense in the labyrinth of London
She was only dreaming
In the city of dreamers
Patience my tinsel angel, patience my perfumed child
She was only dreaming
Playing games with faces in the neon wonderland
Chelsea Monday
Of Chelsea Monday
Sweet Chelsea Monday
She'll pray for endless Sundays as she enters saffron sunsets
She was only dreaming
Hello John, did you see the standard about four hours ago?
She was only dreaming
Catalogue princess, apprentice seductress
Perform to scattered shadows on the shattered cobbled aisles
But for now it's just another Chelsea Monday
Blond hair, blue eyes
Buried in her cellophane world in glitter town
She was only dreaming
She was smiling
Chelsea Monday
Of Chelsea Monday
Fulfilled and yet forgotten the St.Tropez mirage
Would she dare recite soliloquies at the risk of stark applause
She's playing the actress in this bedroom scene
To Chelsea Monday
Sweet Chelsea Monday
