Ballerina Valerie (Live) Lyrics
Joni Mitchell
Miscellaneous
BALLERINA VALERIE
Down in the garden
Under a leaf she was smoking her keef
And she was looking at stardom
Everything's bright as she draws on the pipe
And the bowl glows redder
And things look better
Mars is a ruby
Saturn is sapphire it burns with a blue fire
Colors run through me
Loosen my thinking they're flashing and blinking
And always changing rearranging
Ballerina Valerie now
Move me through your crimson dances
Terragan a red bandana
Bring me down your silver trances
Down in the garden
Under an oak he was drinking his Coke
And he was looking at stardom
Everything's bright as he draws on the pipe
And the bowl glows redder
And things go better with Coca-Cola
