paroles de chanson Farewell to a Sex Symbol - Ronnie Spector



(Michel Berger/Luc Plamondon) adaptation anglaise Tim Rice
I've a message for the world and my ever-loyal fans
For I don't know what stories you've read.
I'm killing off Baby Doll, I've more exciting plans.
Baby Doll's gonna quit while she's ahead.
This is her final goodbye to all the glam and glitz.
This is about her checking out, I'm taking off the Ritz.
Come and watch her die, I've had it up to here.
Don't miss the last goodbye, the exit of the year.
I've spent the last decade pretending that I'm under thirty
And regularly laid when I hate even talking dirty, oh yes!
How much I long to be unrecognised and lead a quiet suburban life
And be a half-forgotten dream and a wife...
Nobody knew it could be hell when I was filmed with guys in bed.
What they were thinking, you could tell, I used to think about the bread.
And it's time for a rest to go out on a high.
I've given my best, so this is goodbye.
You can keep the whole shebang, the parasitic gang
The nuts galore around my door.
I ain't gonna slide downhill, l'm leaving while l'm still divine
No one's gonna have the thrill, seeing a sad decline
High on the peaks of fame, I feel the winds of change
I feel the winds of change.
Nothing ever stays the same when the only way is down.
When nothing excites, let lesser lights scramble for the crown.
Come and watch her die, I've had it up to here.
Don't miss the last goodbye, the exit of the year.
I've given all I've got, I've glittered for the glitterati.
But now I'd trash the lot, so welcome to my farewell-party
A legend's party...
Observed in close-up by a billion eyes, I say my final intimate goodbyes
As I descend the golden stairs, I'll cry.
Let me go, let me leave you all!
Let her die! Let the curtain fall! The cameras roll.
I pause a moment, for effect, with the timing you'd expect.
Let me go, let me leave you all!
Let her die! Let the curtain fall! The cameras roll.
And then, a final heartfelt tear as I begin to disappear.
"I love you" from the fading queen, the perfect ending to the scene
And the waiting limousine, driver, take me to oblivion!
