By the river, Juliet, you would stroll,
with your four red wings on your back.
You would hum Alice by Lewis Carroll
on a rather mad magnetic soundtrack.
Mummy, let us go and pick violets
, in Juliet's wonderland, sweet Juliet's.
la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
On the old film-screens of 68,
you were just a Chinese extra, mate...
Ferdinand Godard hired you as an actress
Behind a mirror in a café in Paris.
Mummy, let us go and pick violets
in Juliet's wonderland, sweet Juliet's.
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
In the long way that leads to Hollywood,
you know you'll have to keep up your mood
coz superstars and starlets who shine bright
will trip you, Juliet, in the American night.
Mummy, let us go and pick violets
, in Juliet 's wonderland, sweet Juliet's.
