Lyrics:
Would you like to come down to me from your town above the line? I saw an omen that you were coming and I do believe it's time Precious Opal, Queen of Gems upon a frozen marquee sign. When you first moved to your room way up on Power Station Hill And you fell in with a man who had a lunchbox full of pills, I asked for you portfolio but you gave me your high heels. It's deciding when's the last time that's the trouble. It's not over if you plan to try again And I hope this does not scratch your mirrored surface, Precious Opal, Queen of Gems. Two winters passed and through them both a hurricane did tear And it sent some strong men running and it threw houses in the air And it left a shining opal sitting naked in the air. Your front teeth had been damaged in the strangest kind of thing. You chipped them during a frantic delivery of kisses to the king And you handed me a butterknife and said you were hanging by a string. I went down to a funeral on Salem Street this morning, All the cars in the procession painted white. You know I felt a little bit underdressed but I decided I had to go inside. I asked an old man that was standing by the coroner the name of the man that died. He told me his name but I didn't quite hear him, And I decided that that was alright. Do you remember when we tried to wet the bed all night and you couldn't do it? I hope this does not scratch your mirrored surface, Precious Opal, Queen of Gems.
