Lyrics for Magdalene (My Regal Zonophone)

Though I know the night has fallen, and the sun sailed out to sea I will wait here for the band to play the trumpet voluntary And with one foot on the seashore and the other in the sand I will stand here plaiting daisies whilst you play the piano-grand Caprice, your bugle blew away the cobwebs from my ears And for once I stood quite naked Unashamed, I wept the tears Which I tried to hide inside myself from me I mean from you But the shame I found too painful And the pain it only grew Magdalene, my regal zonophone Magdalene, my regal zonophone
