Chanel No5
Chanel No.5
-------------------
On the borderline of photos and time
We don't want to leave her now
"What do I wear to bed? Why, Chanel No.5, of course!"
Something in curves, a beautiful crime
She doesn't want to leave somehow
"What do I wear to bed? Why, Chanel No.5, of course!"
News-reel prints
and print-press presidents
Diamond boys
and silver screen compliments
A ten-thousand soldier stare,
and sexual laissez-faire
The every-woman's woman
of secret doors to nowhere
"What do I wear to bed? Why, Chanel No.5, of course!"
On the borderline of photos and time
She doesn't want to leave somehow
What did she wear when dead?
Why, Chanel No.5, of course...
