Hottest summer in history
I was dead, couldn't even go on
Teenagers like a woolly mammoth, hiding behind sprinklers
Smoking grass on the festival lawn
I saw the figures in the wax museum
Melt into pools on the floor
Cleopatra, Greta Garbo, Frank Sinatra,
Marilyn Monroe, Vincent Price, Charlie Chaplin
Nothing but puddles on the floor
May 19th, dressed in grey
V-IC-T-O-R-I-A
Said the Queen Mary to the Princess Marguerite
"Come ashore on the downtown street"
Everyone's talkin' 'bout [?]
[?] crackin' up and sayin' he's seein' the future
Those men that you thought were spies still have eyes
On the island
Hurry, now
It's almost time
Come and see the ones you left behind
I was reminded today what the girls used to say on the island
(Sleep City, VIC, through the garden to a windy beach)
They'd go
(Sleep City, VIC, through the garden to a windy beach)
I saw her standing where a graveyard
Used to be but the graveyard was gone
What happened to the flowers at [?]
All the rows and pretty houses where the dogs used to roll on the lawn
But where have all the dogs gone, baby Jane?
"Save the Queen Mary" read the signs on the street
And everybody is dressed up for the feast
Drinkin' peach magnolia gin iced teas
Coca-Cola makes me sniff and then sneeze
Kids are always doin' what they do to survive
Said you played the garden party, but the garden's a dive
You better come, come, come, come, come, come back
To the island
Hurry, now
Your time's just passed
You had your old friend Jane, but Jane's gone so fast
Hey nineteen, if you know what I mean
Let's get back to the island
(Through the garden to a windy beach)
Ooh
Get back
(Sleep City, VIC, through the garden to a windy beach)
