Venusian Diamond — текст песни (Carole King)

VENUSIAN DIAMOND
by Carole King, Rick Evers & Navarro

On the thirty-first day of
the summer moon
In the marketplace
Soembody touched my hand and said
I was a woman of taste
Then with a flutter of wings
AAmid the clutter of things
I saw the Venusian Diamond
through a see of grace

I said "Lay all of your money down
And I will be your own
Do it if you can
If you don`t, you better
leave it alone"

Then there appeared a serpent hanging
Like a thunder rope
He said, "Pull me" -I did
And fell into the wrong end of a telescope
SO I began to run
I knew not to where I`d come
I could hear the Venusian Diamond
and it gave me hope

It said, "Shatter all your images
And I will be your own
Do it if you can
If you don`t, you better
leave it alone"
