lyrics

I want to know what you say about me, oh
I want to know what you say about me, oh
I want to know what you say about me
When the door is closed

At Versailles, even the walls have ears
You know I'd kill to hear
What you'd say

I'm King Louis and I love to dance, oh
I'm King Louis, I'm the king of France, oh
I'm King Louis and I love to dance
But I love to gossip more

At Versailles, even the walls have ears
You know I'd kill to hear
What you'd say

Oh! Believe you me that I know I can't be everybody's cup of tea
Oh! But, even so, I'd like to think I'm yours
Come on whisper into my wanting ear
Come on, let me know

I want to know what you say about me
I want to know what you say about me
I want to know what you say about me
When I leave the hall

Do you say a curse
Or even worse, do you say nothing at all?
There's not enough champagne I could sip
That would make me slip up and admit

That I care a bit what you think about me
C'est la vie
I wish you'd say you love me
Oh!
C'est la vie.

This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
