Lady Nina

You pick out your credit cards and check into the night A dozen tequilas and you're feeling alright So you swim to the disco, out of your depth, jaded gigolo Your lucky charms are tarnished so you leave alone But there's one place left to go before the taxi home After all, you made your marks One night you'll play Elizabeth Taylor The next night you're Marilyn Monroe Forever kissing frogs that think they're princes Oh Lady Nina, where did all the romance go? Your little sister babysits, your husband picks you up at six The make-up hides the bruises and the tears so they never show 'Cause your beauty is the only thing you've ever owned It's the only way you've ever known to make your marks You made your marks, you made your marks We believe it's for real
