Your pretty long hair and splat of red on your right cheek You were God once; Now you can't be tamed You prudently hid your neck to prevent jealousy --- You danced wilder, wilder than her; that Isadora But no mother lets her daughter stand so lonely wild so uncontrollably The long, long scarf Keeps making legendary blue and red and black and black; And black and back to blue again and red and black --- The show went on; It still goes on.

Your pretty long hair and splat of red on your right cheek You were God once; Now you can't be tamed You prudently hid your neck to prevent jealousy --- You danced wilder, wilder than her; that Isadora But no mother lets her daughter stand so lonely wild so uncontrollably The long, long scarf Keeps making legendary blue and red and black and black; And black and back to blue again and red and black --- The show went on; It still goes on.
