she flies
right into the bedroom wall
she's blinded herself again
madame pompadour
in electric candlelight
and the stereo lullabies
make her sleep and dream of more
madade pompadour
and she tries and tries
though she can't seem to find
just what it is
she is looking for
she flies so high
then just like all the other times
she crashes to the floor
and she buys
oh yeah, she buys
but she can't afford the price
of all she's paying for
somewhere east of eden
and west of rome
she's trying to find
her superbowl
she spies and she spies
through every keyless hole
madame pompadour
and she can't begin
and she can't get out
and she can't convince herself
she's anything but bored
and her cheshire grin
can really lure you out
but she's wearing thin
madame pompadour
somewhere east of eden
and west of rome
she's trying to find
her superbowl
madame pompadour
