Bal‐A‐Versaillies (bonus track from Ringside) Songtext
von Cold Chisel

Aliester Crowley
And Bar Shem Tov
Are lyin′ in the alley
Too stoned to move
Them and Aristotle
Are playin' swy
For one tiny bottle
Bal-a-Versailles

Over the ocean
Over the sea
From out of east of Eden
Pre-B.C.
To Terra Incognito
Anno Domini
It hits the libido
Bal-a-Versailles


People say it′s a natural thing
Whisper of alien air
People say you're a fool if you fall in love
I say yeah, yeah, yeah

Reason for living
Reason to die
Take it as given
Bal-a-Versailles

The dogs are barking
By the caravanserai
Rolls on, through the night
Bal-a-Versailles

People say it's an animal thing
Talkin′ and kissin′ the air
And people say you're a fool if you fall in love
I say yeah, yeah, yeah


Dogs are barking
The caravanserai
Rolls on, through the night
Bal-a-Versailles
Rolls on, through the night
Bal-a-Versailles
Rolls on, through the night
I say yeah, yeah, yeah
