Maid Of Bond Street Lyrics by David Bowie

Maid Of Bond Street Lyrics

    This girl is made of lipstick
    Powder and paint
    Sees the pictures of herself
    Every magazine on every shelf

    This girl is maid of bond street
    Hailing cabs, lunches with executives
    Gleaming teeth sip aperitifs

    This girl is a lonely girl
    Takes the train from paddington to oxford circus
    Buys the daily news
    But passengers don't smile at her, don't smile at her

    This girl is made of loneliness
    A broken heart
    For the boy that she once knew
    Doesn't want to know her any more

    And this girl is a lonely girl
    Every thing she wants is hers
    But she can't make it with the boy she really wants to be with
    All the time, to love, all the time

    This boy is made of envy
    Jealousy
    He doesn't have a limousine
    Really wants to be a star himself

    This girl, her world is made of flashlights and films
    Her cares are scraps on the cutting room floor

    And maids of bond street drive round in chauffered cars
    Maids of bond street picture clothes, eyes of stars
    Maids of bond street shouldn't have worldly cares
    Maids of bond street shouldn't have love affairs
