lyrics

I strike up the cloud
Strike up the velvet purple cloud
I strike up the cloud
And find the bones ready to dance

Fire dancing bones
Twirling the sparks of my lace
Raising the sparks of my face
Into a velvet purple chase

CHORUS
You got me face up
And ready to shine
The perfect stage
Is set up in your sky
This light is for you and I
So hold your face up
I’ll make you mine

I stir up my dress
Stir up my dirty purple dress
I stir up my dress
And find the bones ready for
Another act in this dress
Another kiss to assess
Play up the fox to impress
One more ride

Pull your shot
Pull your shot at me
And Russia smiles, says, Russia smiles, says
Everyone’s got their own taste of you

CHORUS (2X)
