The Clarietta Rag - Kevin Ayers

Have you seen miss clarietta

Riding round on her lambretta

On the mountainside

Looking out for friendly faces

Peering out of mountain places

Waiting for a ride

She’s the queen of mountain magic, everybody knows

And late at night she sings with gentleness

Becoming to a rose

Please send her a great big shining star

To show her where you are

Please give her the love you’ve stored away

And cannot use today

If you meet her in the moonlight

Don’t be shy and don’t be uptight

She might disappear

If she thinks you want to get her

Stop her, riding her lambretta

She won’t let you near

She s the queen of mountain flowers

You can love them too

But if you pick her lovely flowers

How can they grow for you

Please send her a great big shining star

To show her where you are

Please give her the love you’ve stored away

And cannot use today

Two, three, four

I like it
