Radiate simply, the candle is burning So low for me Generate me limply, I can't seem to place Your name, cherie To rearrange all these thoughts in a moment Is suicide Come to a strange place, we'll talk over old times We never spied Somebody called me Sebastian Somebody called me Sebastian Work out a rhyme, toss me the time, lay me You're mine And we all know, oh yeah! Your Persian eyes sparkle, your lips, ruby blue Never speak a sound You, oh so gay, with Parisian demands, You can run around And your view of society screws up my mind Like you'll never know Lead me away, come inside, See my mind in kaleidoscope Somebody called me Sebastian Somebody called me Sebastian Love me sublime, mangle my mind Do it in style So we all know, oh yeah! You're not gonna run, baby we've only just begun, baby To compromise Slagged in a bowery saloon love's a story We'll serialise Pale angel face, green-eye shadow, the glitter Is outaside No courtesan could begin to decipher Your beam of light Somebody called me Sebastian Somebody called me Sebastian Dance on my heart, laugh swoop and dart, La-di-di-da Now we all know you, yeah!
Radiate simply, the candle is burning
So low for me
Generate me limply, I can't seem to place
Your name, cherie
To rearrange all these thoughts in a moment
Is suicide
Come to a strange place, we'll talk over old times
We never spied
Somebody called me Sebastian
Somebody called me Sebastian
Work out a rhyme, toss me the time, lay me
You're mine
And we all know, oh yeah!
Your Persian eyes sparkle, your lips, ruby blue
Never speak a sound
You, oh so gay, with Parisian demands,
You can run around
And your view of society screws up my mind
Like you'll never know
Lead me away, come inside,
See my mind in kaleidoscope
Somebody called me Sebastian
Somebody called me Sebastian
Love me sublime, mangle my mind
Do it in style
So we all know, oh yeah!
You're not gonna run, baby we've only just begun, baby
To compromise
Slagged in a bowery saloon love's a story
We'll serialise
Pale angel face, green-eye shadow, the glitter
Is outaside
No courtesan could begin to decipher
Your beam of light
Somebody called me Sebastian
Somebody called me Sebastian
Dance on my heart, laugh swoop and dart,
La-di-di-da
Now we all know you, yeah!
It’s about Oscar Wilde and his last miserable months on the planet. He lived in France,in poverty,and asked people to call him Sebastian Melmoth.
I never knew that.
