Editions Of You

Editions of You (1999 - Remaster) - Roxy Music

Written by：Bryan Ferry

Well I'm here looking through an old picture frame

Just waiting for the perfect view

I hope something special will step in to my life

Another fine edition of you

A pin up done in shades of blue

Sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life

The country air and all it's joys

But badgers couldn't compensate at twice the price

For just another night with the boys oh yeah

And boys will be boys will be boys

They say love's a gamble hard to win easy lose

And while sun shines you'd better make hay

So if life is your table and fate is the

Wheel

Then let the chips fall where they may

In modern times the modern way

And as I was drifting past the lorelei

I heard those slinky sirens wail whooo

So look out sailor when you hear them croon

You'll never been the same again oh no

Their crazy music drives you insane this way

So love me leave me do what you will

Who knows what tomorrow might bring'

Learn from your mistakes is my only advice

And stay cool is still the main rule

Don't play yourself for a fool

Too much cheesecake too soon

Old money's better than new

No mention in the latest tribune

And don't let this happen to you you
