Siouxsie and the Banshees
Ornaments of Gold
[Verse 1]
Silver couches to recline upon and ornaments of gold
Silver moonbeams dance in fountains below shining citadels
Surrounded by silver gates ascending silver stairs
Eureka on angelic prayer wafts in and scents the air
[Chorus]
With ornaments of gold
(Heavenly [?] shine cold)
I'd warm my soul from the growing cold
([?] days are gone)
Ornaments of gold
[Verse 2]
We can drink from silver vessels
We can feed from silver bowls
Then I'll give you gilded treasures
Anointed by intoxicating oils
Drenched in riches unimaginable
Your splendour drips with jewels that are so beautiful
[Chorus]
And ornaments of gold
(Sparkling lights [?])
Warm my soul from the growing cold
(Glittering gilded treasure)
[Verse 3]
Adorable, rewardable you
From head to toe, I'd love to cover you
And smother you
[Chorus]
In ornaments of gold
(Ornaments, ornaments)
In honeydew, I'd love to cover you
Oh, lover do bring
Ornaments of gold
([?])
Protect our hearts from this cruel world
([?])
Ornaments of gold
([?])
Ornaments of gold
