All the songbirds flock to greet her
just like the lovers
who once flocked to meet her...
Queen For A Day
Lyrics by Mick Evans
Gigi sleeps with the stars in the park
in the door o’ the old Palace Café
walls overgrown - she sings all alone
both seen better days
Gigi still looks the part in her heart
bags of clothes from her ‘60’s heyday
classy lady - now nobody stares
since her crown slipped away
Madame Gigi - queen for a day
all the songbirds - flock to greet her
just like the lovers
who once flocked to meet her -
Madame Gigi - queen for a day
at the end of the day
they all fly away
Gigi - she was a star from the start
Queen Of Hearts at the Palace Café
Saville Row suitors - silver service
face of fine porcelain
Madame Gigi - queen for a day
all the songbirds - flock to greet her
just like the lovers
who once flocked to meet her -
Madame Gigi - queen for a day
at the end of the day
they all fly away
See the Robins eating
from the palm of her hand
only they seem to understand
Gigi’s still dreaming the best that she can
Madame Gigi - queen for a day
all the songbirds - flock to greet her
just like the lovers
who once flocked to meet her -
Madame Gigi - queen for a day
at the end of the day
they all fly away
