Bal-a-verailles

Cold Chisel

Aliester Crowley

And Bar Shem Tov

Are lyin' in the alley

Too stoned to move

Them and Aristotle

Are playin' swy

For one tiny bottle

Of Bal-a-Versailles



Over the ocean

Over the sea

From out of east of Eden

Pre-B.C.

To Terra Incognito

Anno Domini

Hits the libido

Bal-a-Versailles



People say it's an animal thing

A whisper of alien air

People say you're a fool if you fall in love

I say yeah, yeah, yeah



Dogs are barking,

The caravanserai

Rolls on, through the night

Bal-a-Versailles



People say all the usual things

Talkin' and kissin' the air

People say you're a fool if you fall in love

I say yeah, yeah, yeah



Reason for living

Reason to die

Take it as given

Bal-a-Versailles



Dogs are barking,

The caravanserai

Rolls on, through the night

Bal-a-Versailles
