Mika - Lady Jane lyrics

[Mika - Lady Jane lyrics]
Lady Jane, the river saint, special yes
But lucky ain't
Lady Jane said she walked on water
But she never had a man to show
Then one day when she found a fella
She was eager just to let him know
Lady Jane she walked on water followed
By her brand new lover
Who tumbled along drowning down below
Lady Jane did not abort for legends
Are never made that short
Now be sure when you listen to this
Here's the reason you shouldn't eat fish
Convinced he'd become a creature of the sea
She cut off her feet and jumped into the deep
And never stopped looking for her lover below
Lady Jane, the river fish became the
World's most wanted dish
And though no man would dare to catch
Something whose beauty we could never match
But when some emperor from a far away state
Said, "I order you to get that
Fish's head on my plate"
They killed little Lady Jane
You emperor of a distant land
The only man who didn't understand
Although you think you've got your prize
There's another fish that has
Escaped your eyes
Lady Jane, her lover's there
Swimming through the ocean with
A desperate stare looking for Lady Jane
He's looking for Lady Jane
But lucky ain't
Lady Jane said she walked on water
But she never had a man to show
Then one day when she found a fella
She was eager just to let him know
Lady Jane she walked on water followed
By her brand new lover
Who tumbled along drowning down below
Lady Jane did not abort for legends
Are never made that short
Now be sure when you listen to this
Here's the reason you shouldn't eat fish
Convinced he'd become a creature of the sea
She cut off her feet and jumped into the deep
And never stopped looking for her lover below
Lady Jane, the river fish became the
World's most wanted dish
And though no man would dare to catch
Something whose beauty we could never match
But when some emperor from a far away state
Said, "I order you to get that
Fish's head on my plate"
They killed little Lady Jane
You emperor of a distant land
The only man who didn't understand
Although you think you've got your prize
There's another fish that has
Escaped your eyes
Lady Jane, her lover's there
Swimming through the ocean with
A desperate stare looking for Lady Jane
He's looking for Lady Jane
