Mark Knopfler - Imelda lyrics

[Mark Knopfler - Imelda lyrics]

She's going shopping, shopping for shoes
She want 'em in magenta and Caribbean blue
Platinum and buttercup, lilac and black
They fill a bucket up and
Laugh behind her back

Imelda baby imelda baby what to do
All the poor people saying that they
Gotta quit paying for you

In New York and Paris on the Champs-Élysées
They see her coming from a long way
Yeah they clap their hands together when
They get her in their store
She's gonna wanna get more, more
More and more and more

Imelda baby imelda baby what to do
All the poor people saying that they
Gotta quit paying for you

Everyone's gone Jackie O
She was a regular here
We thought madame would like to know
We've got the blood-red rouge right here

Now we've got all of madame's requisites
And all in madame's size
Madame's taste is truly exquisite
She must accessorise
Yeah the belts are alligator
The bags are kangaroo
Enchantée, may I say the jade
Was made for you

Imelda baby imelda baby what to do
All the poor people saying that they
Gotta quit paying for you
Yeah all the poor people saying
They gotta quit paying

Imelda baby imelda baby what to do
All the poor people saying that they
Gotta quit paying for you
Yeah all the poor people saying that
They gotta quit paying for you yeah
