Lyrics Carmen/Mathilda - Carmen Consoli

She considered it the height of bad taste
Keep fit fanatics in sweaty shorts
Pretty porcelain dolls, brought that on
Candlewick bedspreads

She considered it the height of bad taste
Sycophantic lap dog lip service
China dog spouse in grotesquely on over
Populated sitting room sideboards

Mathilda placed daisies to her long black hair
She could not stand Tom cats
And Tom cats everywhere
Little white lies, look at those eyes
Mathilda hated Tom cats
And social climbing forces

She considered it the height of bad taste
Secret obsessive pornography trips
Churchgoing bigots with hidden voices
Plum like smile stretching silicon lips

Mathilda placed daisies to her long black hair
She could not stand Tom cats
And Tom cats everywhere
Little white lies, look at those eyes
Mathilda hated Tom cats
And social climbing forces

Mathilda placed daisies to her long black hair
She could not stand Tom cats
And Tom cats everywhere

Matilde odiava il tanfo d'urina
Tipico dei gatti in calore
Un giorno prese la pistola dal cassetto e sparò
Ne colpì uno grigio
E lo vide cadere a terra esanime
Ma pose fine al proprio dramma
Soltanto nel momento in cui
Premette il grilletto contro sé stessa

Mathilda placed daisies to her long black hair
She could not stand Tom cats
And Tom cats everywhere
Little white lies look at those eyes
Mathilda hated Tom cats
And social climbing forces
