Olympia

SUNDARA KARMA · Youth Is Only Ever Fun In Retrospect 2017 · Track 03 of 12

Written by Oscar Pollock

Oh no Olympia said she loves me Olympia said she needs me But what about all the marquis No not them Because they're all so autocratic

There's something pale underneath the beat A white innocence marked by lecherous men I thought I'd suffer in the city heat I thought I'd suffer now let's hope to begin again

If they could see Modern Venus Tender and frail Hell she's nervous But she's the best in all of Paris At aching and breaking hearts

And oh lord Is heaven such a fine thing We're floating in a dead town Hoping to find someone to be near And we'll fly away Holding onto something We're drifting in a dull sound Hoping to find someone who will hear

Oh no Olympia said she loves me Olympia said she needs me But what about all the marquis No not them Because they're all so autocratic

I can't invest with this currency A blind diligence wrapped and bowed with a lie But still we stay for the company But still we stay cause we don't wanna ever die

If they could see Modern Venus Tender and frail Hell she's nervous But she's the best in all of Paris At aching and breaking hearts

And oh lord Is heaven such a fine thing We're floating in a dead town Hoping to find someone near And we'll fly away Holding onto something We're drifting in a dull sound Hoping to find someone who will hear
