ELVIS COSTELLO - Imperial Bedroom lyrics

rate me

Everyone agreed that she looked delightful

Except for her sister, who was hateful and spiteful

Blushing bright red from her head to her feet

But rushing into her bridal suite

The imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir

Life turns out like a TV serial

A head full of daydreams, his hands full of material

She says it's nothing, he's messing up her hair

And still he looks so neat

Stepping into the bridal suite

The imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir

So the best man will do his best again

Now they're getting dressed again

Blushing bright red from her head to her feet

Sneaking out of the bridal suite

The imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir

We know who you're with and where you are

In the imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir

Two names under the register

In the imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir

Au revoir
