Testo Farewell to a Sex Symbol - Ronnie Spector
Testo della canzone Farewell to a Sex Symbol (Ronnie Spector), tratta dall'album The Very Best Of Ronnie Spector
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
And taking off the Ritz
Come and watch her die
I've had it up to here
Don't miss her 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, yeah
How much I long to be unrecognized
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
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
I'm leaving while I'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
And nothing excites
Let lesser lights
Scramble for the crown
Come and watch her die
I've had it up to here
Don't miss your last goodbye
The exit of the year
I've given all I've got
I've fitted for the glitterati
But now I've trashed the lot
So welcome to my farewell party
A legends' party
Observed in close-up by a billion eyes
I'll 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 go)
Let me leave you all (Let me leave you all)
Let her die (Let her die)
Let the curtain fall (The curtain fall)
The cameras roll
And then a final heartfelt tear
As I begin to disappear
I love you (I love you)
From the fading queen
The perfect ending
To the scene
And then the waiting
Limousine
Driver, take me to oblivion
