Requiem in Denim and Leopardskin

I thought it was like a film Reviewed but never seen Where everybody played themselves As a drama king or queen The music was overwhelming Glittering and thin Solemn and shabby like a requiem In denim and leopardskin I visualised the flashback School, punk rock, success Parties, too much of everything The clichés, the candles, the mess Lucien in the scene with David Brian in a tux A copy of Blitz in Zanzibar Old Hollywood redux Ossie's last collection Biba's closing sale A little more rouge on the powdered cheeks But the base is pale This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin It ended with a motorbike A search for evidence Poring over old photographs To make it all fake sense Glamorous in its own way Shouting above the din Solemn and shabby like a requiem In denim and leopardskin Johnny's wearing brothel-creepers Malcolm's round the block Adam's in a Jarman film The look is 'Let It Rock' A Johnson's leather jacket Hair by Keith at Smile All you need to make it big Is sex and style This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin
