This one's a dodo
This one's a flop
This one's a moron
And I'm fit to drop

Cross-fire chatter
Caught in the slums
She's off to her Chelsea Hotel

Her friend was out
Another one died
She felt depressed
She almost cried

And then she remembered
She'd left her hat
Back in the Chelsea Hotel

No more Lily Marlene
Boys in the back room
Falling in love again

She was an angel
Caught in crossfire
Out of Germany
Before it expired

History is written
The blue angel's gone
And this could be her saddest song

And history is written
The blue angel's gone
This could be her saddest song

Song, song, song
