Mika - Lady Jane Lyrics

Lady Jane, the river saint, special yes, but lucky ain't
Lady Jane said she walked on water
But she never had a man to show

Then one day when she found a fella, she was eager just to let him know
Lady Jane she walked on water followed by her brand new lover
Who tumbled along drowning down below

Lady Jane did not abort for legends are never made that short
Now be sure when you listen to this
Here's the reason you should never eat fish

Convinced he'd become a creature of the sea
She cut off her feet and jumped into the deep
And never stopped looking for her lover below

Lady Jane, the river fish became the world's most wanted dish
And though no man would dare to catch
Something whose beauty we could never match

But when some emperor from a far away state
Said, "I order you to get that fish's head on my plate"
They killed little lady Jane

You emperor of a distant land, the only man who didn't understand
Although you think you've got your prize
There's another fish that has escaped your eyes

Lady Jane, her lover's there
Swimming through the ocean with a desperate air
Looking for Lady Jane, he's looking for Lady Jane
