Lyrics
Last candles snuffed out on the chandeliers The great hall more silent than it’s been in years Outside the fountains trickle raindrop tears Welcome to Blue Versailles Gone are the ball gowns of white lace & gold Powdered wigs lie still now perfumed with mold The diamond tiara have long since been sold Welcome to Blue Versailles Chorus Good times, bad times, no time for some Change is uncertain, but change has to come Old world starts to wobble –hiccups & fits You wake up one morning & find out that it’s - gone Middle instrumental section Last lights turned out in the factory They’ve locked up the gate & thrown out the key I hope there’s a big last check waiting for me Welcome to my Blue Versailles Gone are my days of having it all Yeah, what goes up will surely fall But wait ‘til it’s you with your back to the wall. Welcome to Blue Versailles Chorus Good times, bad times, no time for some Change is uncertain, but change has to come Old world starts to wobble –hiccups & fits You wake up one morning & find out that it’s - gone
