Momus - Hotel Marquis de Sade lyrics
[Momus - Hotel Marquis de Sade lyrics]
There were three of us always
Walking abreast towards a siesta
In two single beds
The thrill of the bullring
Was our thrill as well
There was blood on the bell-pull
In the hot hotel mediterranean
The middle of the world
Two middle-class English boys
And a middle-class English girl
But in the Hotel Marquis de Sade
In the middle of a single bed
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
And after siesta the table is set
With a leg and a breast and a drumstick
And we eat and forget
Then Colin loves Alice and Alice loves me
And I love the stains on the ceiling
And pump like the sea mediterranean
The middle of the world
Two middle-class English boys
And a middle-class English girl
But in the Hotel Marquis de Sade
In the middle of a single bed
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
But in the Hotel Marquis de Sade
The Devil in a single bed
"Who is the third who
Walks always beside you? When I count
There are only you and I together
But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one
Walking beside you
Gliding wrapt in a brown mantle, hooded
I don't know whether a man or a woman
- But who is that on the other side of you?"
"Who is the third who
Walks always beside you? When I count
There are only you and I together
But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one
Walking beside you"
Walking abreast towards a siesta
In two single beds
The thrill of the bullring
Was our thrill as well
There was blood on the bell-pull
In the hot hotel mediterranean
The middle of the world
Two middle-class English boys
And a middle-class English girl
But in the Hotel Marquis de Sade
In the middle of a single bed
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
And after siesta the table is set
With a leg and a breast and a drumstick
And we eat and forget
Then Colin loves Alice and Alice loves me
And I love the stains on the ceiling
And pump like the sea mediterranean
The middle of the world
Two middle-class English boys
And a middle-class English girl
But in the Hotel Marquis de Sade
In the middle of a single bed
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
The beast with three backs
But in the Hotel Marquis de Sade
The Devil in a single bed
"Who is the third who
Walks always beside you? When I count
There are only you and I together
But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one
Walking beside you
Gliding wrapt in a brown mantle, hooded
I don't know whether a man or a woman
- But who is that on the other side of you?"
"Who is the third who
Walks always beside you? When I count
There are only you and I together
But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one
Walking beside you"
