lyrics

Well I've loved your first daughter,
But now she’s coming home to you,
If I wrote an album she’d be on the cover,
Wearing orange lilac, green and blue.

Well I've loved your first daughter,
Not out of choice but if I could choose,
I’d have her over any other,
In her orange, lilac, green and blue.

She’s a tectonic, supersonic, tailor-­made queen,
And I’m a swimming pool with no rules,
A sucker for orange, lilac, green and blue.
And I sold my beach for a bucket of sand,
Played bad cards but won my hand,

While she stayed at home with the whole of the moon,
She doesn't need poker to feel in tune.
She's a tectonic, narcotic, genius machine,
And I am running back in my panama jack,
Kelly’s Hero, not feeling keen. She is a...
