Neil Hannon (solo) - A Lady Of A Certain Age • Back in the day you had been part of the smart set • You'd holidayed with kings, dined out with starlets • From London to New York, Cap Ferrat to Capri • In perfume by Chanel and clothes by Givenchy • You sipped camparis with David and Peter • At Noel's parties by Lake Geneva • Scaling the dizzy heights of high society • Armed only with a cheque-book and a family tree • You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur • Until the light of youth became obscured • And left you on your own and in the shade • An English lady of a certain age • And if a nice young man would buy you a drink • You'd say with a conspiratorial wink • You wouldn't think that I was seventy • And he'd say, no, you couldn't be! • You had to marry someone very very rich • So that you might be kept in the style to which • You had all of your life been accustomed to • But that the socialists had taxed away from you • You gave him children, a girl and a boy • To keep your sanity a nanny was employed • And when the time came they were sent away • Well that was simply what you did in those days • You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur • Until the light of youth became obscured • And left you on your own and in the shade • An English lady of a certain age • And if a nice young man would buy you a drink • You'd say with a conspiratorial wink • You wouldn't think that I was sixty three • And he'd say, no, you couldn't be! • Your son's in stocks and bonds and lives back in Surrey • Flies down once in a while and leaves in a hurry • Your daughter never finished her finishing school • Married a strange young man of whom you don't approve • Your husband's hollow heart gave out one Christmas Day • He left the villa to his mistress in Marseilles • And so you come here to escape your little flat • Hoping someone will fill your glass and let you chat about how • You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur • Until the light of youth became obscured • And left you all alone and in the shade • An English lady of a certain age • And if a nice young man would buy you a drink • You'd say with a conspiratorial wink • You wouldn't think that I was fifty three • And he'd say, no, you couldn't be! • http://www.thedivinecomedy.com/ • http://www.fromthebasement.tv/
