Chance spins you this
And goes and takes away that
Nightly proverbial
Pulling a rabbit from a hat
Pearl in a shell go on lock those treasures
Lock them up tight
Don't let them wander
Lost in the wild hot night
Nervous sweat
Find yourself loss of breathe
It's like every minute wasted
Is kind of quiet death
Pearl in a shell
Oh safe and secure do tell
You're not sick but surely you're not well
Pearl in a shell
Is it paradise?
Or your own private little hell
Oft we are entranced
But we can't seem to simply dance
You know the timing, the timing
Is all kind of wrong
And the question it took too long
Hide away something befalling you
Or do you live your life like it's your last breath
Doesn't matter what you do
Pearl in a shell lock those treasures lock them up tight
Don't let them wander lost in the wild hot night
Pearl in a shell you can put in all the effort
But somehow you are never found
Deep down in the ocean without a sound
