Ballrooms Of Versailles - Army Of Lovers

The ballrooms of Versailles

Like dragons riding high

We dance the nights away

Life is glam and gay

Fountains cry Tokai

At ballrooms of Versailles

The gardens where we play

(Gardens where we play)

The queen has gone astray

Salute Czar Nicolai

The night the party died

At ballrooms of Versailles

Hail Knight in shining armor

The emperor’s decree

The clock strikes midnight hour

Arrive from gay Paris

A world of games and duels

And secret go-betweens

Throw marks or pounds or rubels

Pay life to share the scene

The ballrooms of Versailles

Like dragons riding high

(Dragons riding high)

We dance the nights away

Life is glam and gay

Fountains cry Tokai

At ballrooms of Versailles

The gardens where we play

(Gardens where we play)

The queen has gone astray

Salute Czar Nicolai

The night the party died

At ballrooms of Versailles

A court of fallen angels

Below the guillotine

Betrayed by nightly rangers

Doomed unforgiven sin

The struggle of the classes

The birth of bourgeoisie

Beheaded by the masses

By God that queen was me

The ballrooms of Versailles

Like dragons riding high

(Dragons riding high)

We dance the nights away

Life is glam and gay

Fountains cry Tokai

At ballrooms of Versailles

The ballrooms of Versailles

Like dragons riding high

(Dragons riding high)

We dance the nights away

Life is glam and gay

Fountains cry Tokai

At ballrooms of Versailles

The gardens where we play

(Gardens where we play)

The queen has gone astray

Salute Czar Nicolai

The night the party died

At ballrooms of Versailles
