Oh no
Olympia said she loves me
Olympia said she needs me
But what about all the marquis
No not them
Because they’re all so autocratic
There’s something pale underneath the beat
A white innocence marked by lecherous men
I thought I’d suffer in the city heat
I thought I’d suffer now let’s hope to begin again
If they could see
Modern Venus
Tender and frail
Hell she’s nervous
But she’s the best in all of Paris
At aching and breaking hearts
And oh lord
Is heaven such a fine thing
We’re floating in a dead town
Hoping to find someone to be near
And we’ll fly away
Holding onto something
We’re drifting in a dull sound
Hoping to find someone who will hear
Oh no
Olympia said she loves me
Olympia said she needs me
But what about all the marquis
No not them
Because they’re all so autocratic
I can’t invest with this currency
A blind diligence wrapped and bowed with a lie
But still we stay for the company
But still we stay cause we don’t wanna ever die
If they could see
Modern Venus
Tender and frail
Hell she’s nervous
But she’s the best in all of Paris
At aching and breaking hearts
And oh lord
Is heaven such a fine thing
We’re floating in a dead town
Hoping to find someone near
And we’ll fly away
Holding onto something
We’re drifting in a dull sound
Hoping to find someone who will hear
