At Madam Plum's

歌詞

Just outside this window Blood might get on your shoes Please don't track it in though Thank you We've all read the news Outside, it's drums and trumpets But here, it's tea and crumpets Here at madam plum's Where everybody comes We watch the world decay And dance the night away Here at madam plum's Their trumpets and their drums Are hardly ever heard And war is just a word It may be raining fire But here, we don't enquire We find it necessary To take a spot of sherry And so we find a very Secluded sanctuary Way down in the slums We step over the bums Behind the liquor store To find the hidden door Down at madam plum's We spend fantastic sums And all our idle hours Admiring the flowers Here at madam plum's We grow chrysanthemums Of every size and kind However you're inclined... Here at madam plum's Where everybody comes We watch the world decay And dance the night away Here at madam plum's Their trumpets and their drums Are hardly every heard And war is just a word
