lyrics

Verse 1:
Clouds of powdered diamond
Plume around the room
Pillows of a heavy thread count
Billow in a blacked out tomb

Verse 2:
Led footsteps on crystal
Shatter any sense of hush
The monarchs wings are fluttering
Is Her Majesty about to wake up?

Chorus:
I’m being loud when I should be quiet
Don’t wake the Queen she demands silence
I’m being loud when I should be quiet
Don’t wake the Queen unless you’re prepared
to soothe the muse in the middle of the afternoon

Verse 3:
Golden woven sovereign
Skin of porcelain
The commoners should be whispering
So the regent can sleep

Verse 4:
Elephant ballerinas
Sashay across the scene
Lullaby by candlelight
Peace for my doyenne
