I am creating a post on The Blog of Innocence to go with this song. Here are the lyrics:

Mother Of Pearl

Turn the lights down Way down low Turn up the music Hi as fi can go All the gang’s here Everyone you know It’s a crazy scene Hey there just look over your shoulder oo oo Get the picture? No no no no….Yes

Walk a tightrope Your life sign line Such a bright hope Right place, right time What’s your number? Never you mind Take a powder But hang on a minute what’s coming round the corner, ooh.. oo oo Have you future? No no no no….Yes

Well I’ve been up all night.. Again? Party time wasting Is too much fun

Then I step back thinking Of life’s inner meaning And my latest fling

It’s the same old story All love and glory It’s a pantomime

If you’re looking for love In a looking glass world It’s pretty hard to find

Oh Mother of Pearl, I wouldn’t trade you for another girl

Divine intervention Always my intention So I take my time

I’ve been looking for something I’ve always wanted But was never mine

But now I’ve seen that something Just out of reach, glowing Very Holy Grail

Oh Mother of Pearl, lustrous lady of a scared world

Thus, even Zarathustra Another time loser Could believe in you

With every goddess a let down Every idol a bring down It gets you down

But the search for perfection Your own predilection Goes on and on and on and on

Canadian club love A place in the country Everyone’s ideal

But you are my favorita And a place in your heart dear Makes me feel more real

Oh Mother of Pearl I wouldn’t change you for the whole world

You’re highbrow, holy With lots of so Melancholy shimmering

Serpentine sleekness Was always my weakness Like a simple tune

But no dilettante Filigree fancy Beats the plastic you

Career girl cover Exposed and another Slips right into view

Oh looking for love In a looking glass world Is pretty hard for you

Few throw away kisses The boomerang misses Spins round and round

Fall on feather bed quilted Faced with silk Softly stuffed eider down

Take refuge in pleasure Just give me your future We’ll forget your past

Oh Mother of Pearl Submarine lover In a shrinking world

Oh lonely dreamer Your choker provokes A picture of cameo

Oh Mother of Pearl So, so semiprecious In your detached world

Oh Mother of Pearl I wouldn’t trade you for another girl (repeat)
