Take off your coat of many colors
And throw it on the floor
Like your old discarded lovers
The ones you can't recall
Lay your head down on the pillow
Place your hand upon your chest
Close your eyes and think of England
To take your final rest
Sometimes all the love in the world
Is never quite enough
They love you and adore you
But only when you're dressing up
It's all this useless love
A total waste of time
One day the sun will dim and die
With no one left to mind
The death of a dandy
A grand dilly dandy
Let's dip our maraschinos
In a glass of cherry brandy
You're all out of witticism
No longer bonne-vivant
They all wait for you to sparkle
In the end you said you can't
Lay your head down on the pillow
Spray yourself with rose'
Place your mirror on the bedside
Kiss the only one you love
Sometimes all the love in the world
Is never quite enough
They never really knew you
Never saw you looking rough
It's all this pointless life
A total waste of time
Everything moves on so fast
And we get left behind
The death of a dandy
A funeral for a lord
The death of Narcissus
Another angel fall
In your youth you had enough beauty
That you could make a hard man cry
But it was written in your legend
That you had to die
Sometimes all the love in the world
Is never quite enough
They love you and adore you
But only when you're dressing up
It's all this useless love
A total waste of time
One day the sun will dim and die
With no one left to mind
The death of a dandy
A grand dilly dandy
Let's dip our maraschinos
In a glass of cherry brandy
The death of a dandy
Oh, what an occasion
But you are simply sobbing
With just the rasons
The death of a dandy
The faith of a prince
Your chateau Brianne
We're just here to miss
The death of a dandy
A funeral for a lord
The death of Narcissus
Another angel fall
