                      many chords in it, which, you know, maybe he was right.
But Mark insisted that we keep trying, and now it's, I don't know; there's
something about that track, which once again is... He saw a certain brilliance
in that. And other people are picking up on it as well. The other thing that's
very important about it; it's a lovely opportunity for Martha my sister to sing
back-up. She's on every one of my records, except for Lulu. But it does have a
lot of chords. There's a lot of chords in that song. And I have to learn them... Again."

“After another production of "The Flying Dutchman"
 I landed in Berlin
 Thinking over it over it how can I get over it
 And wonder what state I'm in
 Sissi was the anarchist empress of Austria
 And I was in the same state that she was in
 Thinking over it over it how can I get over it
 And where the hell's that fan”

“After another induction to the hall of famine
 I closed the magazine
 Thinking over and over it how can I get over it
 And be German and mean
 Jenny was a pirate and Jane was beheaded and Nina was a sweet nymphomaniac
 And with them in my corner I'm sure that it's a tall order
 To find that perfect man”

“I'm doing all that I can
 Trying to make all the roses bloom in unison
 Say I'm gonna blow you away
 Making all of the roses bloom so step away
 Making all of the roses bloom”

“After another unveiling of the bright red herring
 I walked down Rufus Street
 Thinking over it over it how can I get over it
 And where in the world will I meet”

Bridge:
“That literary, lean, stripe suited lover
 I've read about all of my life
 Which I fear is a ruse and explains
 All the walks through all the parks of Europe
 And why I never will tell you "I love you"
 And why there is just but
 A vision of perfect man”
