Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

But the memory remains



Heavy rings on fingers wave

Another star denies the grave

See the nowhere crowd cry the nowhere tears of honor



Like twisted vines that grow

Hide and swallow mansions whole

And dim the light of an already faded prima donna



Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

But the memory remains



Heavy rings hold cigarettes

Up to lips that time forgets

While the Hollywood sun sets behind your back



And can't the band play on

Just listen, they play my song

Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black



Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Dance little tin goddess



Nananananana nananada nananananana nanananadana

Nananananana nananada nananananana nanananadana



Drift away

Fade away

Little tin goddess



Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Fade to black



Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

Fortune, fame

Mirror vain

Gone insane

But the memory remains



Ash to ash

Dust to dust

Face the fact

The memories remain

Yeah

To this faded prima donna

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



Dance little tin goddess dance



Nananananana nananada nanananana nanananadana

Nananananana nananada nanananana nanananadana
