I crossed the oceans of your womancy.
I crossed the oceans where no one could see.
I will be living in old Monte Carlo
and you will be reading the secrets of soul
or
I will be lulling with almighty colour
if you will be dreaming the secrets of soul
or
I will be lulling with almighty colour
if you will be dreaming the secrets of soul
I will be living in old Monte Carlo
And you will be reading the secrets I sold
I've got the answers to all of your questions
if you've got the meaning to take me and go
I've got the answers to all of your questions
if you've got the money to pay me in gold
I've got to watch
People into a lifeboat.
I've got a watch
That turns into a lifeboat.
You can't tell me your plans
You never will understand.
And counterfeit plans
You never will understand.
You look like you're in another world
But I'm convinced you're mine
You look like you're in another world
But I can read your mind
Glimmering winecards,
voices taking progress,
silence around and the king of my shoe.
Glimmering nightgowns
and poisonous cobras,
silencer under the heel of my shoe.
You can't tell me your plans
You never will understand
And fantastic plans
You never will understand
I cross the ocean of your womancy
I crossed the ocean where no one could see
I've got a watch that turns into a lightning bolt.
I've got a watch
That turns into a lifeboat.
And fantastic plans
You never will understand
And counterfeit plans
You never will understand
you have the real lyric wrong
