singer, songwriter, rock 'n' roller
The service is bad and the food is overpriced
The place is full of yuppies and their yuppie wives
And there never was a mood to sustain anyway
And after ten minutes you're out of things to say
Lunch with Nefertiti -- you waited for this day
Now you watch her lovely smile crumble away
Listen to these losers talkin' on their phones
They're boisterous and proud of the little things they own
I say "I saw you one time when I was in Berlin
But I was with somebody else back then"
Lunch with Nefertiti whispering from the past
Just one of those moments you know will never last
Well some things last forever, some for a day
Some people don't know the difference or care anyway
And if I could reach back across thousands of years
I'd pull you out of your chair and say "Let's get out of here"
Lunch with Nefertiti -- the crowd leaves at one
But time stands still when she walks in the sun
