Wild, wide ocean sea foam in my eyes
The world, so blurry without sight
You dream of lifting her up to the sky
Up, up, up, up
Knowing well, she might not come back,
She might not come back down
And she calls you from her pedal stool
Wants ever more, wants something new

Marianne,
Wants to push all your buttons as far as she can
Marianne,
Is playing her game with you in her den

Wild blossom dust all in my eyes
The city’s a better place with the smell in the skies
You know, she’s got you in her sight
It’s unfortunate, but you chose to be her knight.
And she calls you from her pedal stool
Wants ever more, wants something new

Marianne,
Wants to push all your buttons as far as she can
Marianne,
Is playing her game with you in her den

Marianne, on the racing grounds
She’s sitting, watch you, being chased by the hounds.
Marianne’s far too sophisticated
To talk about the men, she’s recently dated.

Marianne,
Wants to push all your buttons as far as she can
Marianne,
Is playing her game with you in her den.

Marianne,
Wants to push all your buttons as far as she can
Marianne,
Is playing her game with you in her den.
