Marianne Faithfull - Lola R. For Ever Lyrics






How do you dare talk of love?
If you've never known Lola Rastaquouere
She thought she was a he, he thought he was a she
But neither of them knew, really

Lola Rastaquouere, Rasta

Crossing her legs round a fireman's pole
A shabby cat house for the happy few
Stripper on a string, foot in the queue
You hand two weck's wages for the ultimate view

Lola Rastaquouere, Rasta

Her cyclop's eye in the middle of your head
An Oedipus complex dug deep in the sea
And when all's been done, and nothing's been said
You leave the joint, and roll to sleep

Lola Rastaquouere, Rasta

You run your fingers through her hair
Between you and me, her lips don't give a damn
She'll go down on you, still breathing air
The sun starts to rise, so do you, if you can

Lola Rastaquouere, Rasta

Marianne Faithfull Lola R. For Ever Comments
  1. A.... A....

    A changed adapted song...original can be only performed by a man because of male sexual explicit lyrics

  2. C.... M....

    Signature Marianne Faithfull attitude and defiance of the norm ... although Sly and Robbie crezted the sound, the song is all Marianne (like the Grace Jones Nightclubbing album) ... strangely a throwback to a type of sound that created the basis of many dance staples but didn't get to be recognized in its own right (because Sly and Robbie didn't just stick to 1 thing). Cool stuff. 

  3. P.... m....

    pur bonheur, 

  4. G.... C....

    God...what a cover - soundilicious!

  5. b.... ....

    faithfull understands serge better than most and her voice seems 'built' to interpret him. this cover is definitely 1 of the better on this homage CD. it is featured on a recent radio show dedicated to serge [my 8th] which featured unusual versions, virtual interviews and homages and remixes by a whole new generation of musicians inspired by serge: mixcloud.com/wreckthismess/wre­­­­ck-serge-gainsbarre/

    This is amazing. Marianne Faithfull is perfect.

  7. a.... ....

    just perfect remake
