Lyrics for Shedding My Velvet
I'm shedding my velvet, can't you see This is the real me? I'm not as bad as I was, but I'm not as good As I can be, as I can be Think horses, not zebras when you hear the sound Of hooves on the ground You are a heliotrope who loves the sun As it goes 'round and 'round, 'round and 'round The noblesse oblige you sense is mine When I convey my lines Better to illuminate than merely to shine You say this all the time And you're right Better to illuminate than merely to shine You say this all the time And you're right
