Ballerina Valerie Lyrics by Joni Mitchell

Ballerina Valerie Lyrics

    Down in the garden
    Under a leaf, she was smoking her keef
    And she was looking at stardom
    Everything's bright as she draws on the pipe
    And the bowl glows redder
    And things look better

    Mars is a ruby
    Saturn is sapphire, it burns with a blue fire
    Colors run through me
    Loosen my thinking, they're flashing and blinking
    And always changing, rearranging

    Ballerina, valerie now
    Move me through your crimson dances
    Terragan, a red bandana
    Bring me down your silver trances

    Down in the garden
    Under an oak, he was drinking his coke
    And he was looking at stardom
    Everything's bright as he draws on the pipe
    And the bowl glows redder
    And things go better with coca-cola
