Imperial Bedroom Lyrics - Elvis Costello

Everyone agreed that she looked delightful 

Except for her sister, who was hateful and spiteful 

Blushing bright red from her head to her feet 

But rushing into the bridal suite 

The imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir 

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir 

Life turns out like a TV serial 

A head full of daydreams, his hands full of material 

She says it's nothing, he's messing up her hair 

And still he looks so neat, stepping into the bridal suite

The imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir 

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir 

So the best man will do his best again 

Now they're getting dressed again 

Blushing bright red from her head to her feet 

Sneaking out of the bridal suite 

The imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir 

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir 

We know who you're with and where you are

In the imperial bedroom, the regal boudoir 

This casual acquaintance led to an intimate bonsoir 

Au revoir, au revoir, au revoir
