Lyrics King Crimson

King Crimson

Cadence and Cascade

Cadence and Cascade

Kept a man named Jade;

Cool in the shade

While his audience played.

Purred

whispered

Spend us too:We only serve for you

Sliding mystified

On the wine of the tide

Stared pale-eyed

As his veil fell aside.

Sad paper courtesan

They found him just a man.

Caravan hotel

Where the sequin spell fell

Custom of the game.

Cadence oiled in love

Licked his velvet gloved hand

Cascade kissed his name.

Sad paper courtesan

They knew him just a man.
