Shiva Burlesque
Mercury Blues - 1990
Before you go blow
out the candle
Before you do make a wish
I think I take the cake
Or maybe steal a million dollars
Cover ourselves in jewels
Go down to the park
Reflecting all the stars
Ride upon the swing
Forget about everything
Smile it's the
edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
Smile it's the edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
Now I can see the
Mona Lisa
That cold and lonely work of art
But I'd never thought it'd be this hard
Peeling an orange in your kitchen
You know I understand
The juice all over my hand
Smile it's the
edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
Smile it's the edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
It's the edge of the world
Who is the Mona
Lisa
Who is the Mona Lisa
Who is the Mona Lisa
Who is the Mona Lisa

It was three o'clock
school had let out
Well the bus filled up I looked around
Saw the cherry tree motion to me
Come undress yourself under my leaves
I never saw it
go (never saw it go)
It pulled away so slow (pulled away so slow)
That there lot
was clear except for a car
And the driver said I'll take you how far
To the orchards end I'll be your friend
Come and rest yourself under the leaves
The maze of drunks
was deep (never saw it go)
The harvest moon could barely see (pulled away so slow)
And I found myself
curled up by a tyre
With the shirt sleeve tied over my eyes
When I heard your voice speaking so low
Recognized your hand you took my pulse
I never saw you
go (never saw you go)
You pulled away so slow (pulled away so slow)
So slow
I am no savior
I am no savior
I am no savior
I am no savior
Ah ah ah
I am no savior
Meet Chester the
chimp
Observe his
disarming smile
And in his little tuxedo
He wants to be your pal
To Chester the chimp
Life is a gas
So he steps on it all the way
Come on lets give him a hand
I'm Chester the
chimp
And I'm stealing the show
I get around in a little red car
Up the stereo
But I'm Chester the chimp
And I foot the bill
I'm gonna blow my top
If you don't give me the wheel
To the Century
City
That's where I wrote this song
Of what am I to be serious
Come on and sing along
Chester's got a
lucky number
If you guess it'll make you a star
Like the chimps in Century City
Every American knows who you are
On Judgement Day
at heavens gate
Chester's shaking the bar
Tries to bribe St. Peter
Shows him his credit card
And for a Big Boppa
finish
At the end of the show
I stole Gabriel's trumpet
Let old Chester blow
Na na na
Chester's got a
lucky number
if you guess it will make you a star
Bye to you by Coca Cola
just one sip you know who you are
