Vanity, Frank Cadogan Cowper 1907. Royal Academy of Arts, London
Lyrics
Paragon of Virtue
Land of my dreams
Carried into upon these wings
I am spirit I am time
Too late to draw the line
If I want to be happy,
If I want to stay sane
I must alter my course
Then I will be a paragon of virtue
A rocky road was upon us
So I took to the skies
But now I realize
Changed the deck For my next game
If I want to be happy,
If I want to stay sane
I must play a new hand
Then I will be a paragon of virtue
If I want to be happy,
If I want to stay sane
I must alter my course
And I will be a paragon of virtue
Unlike you...
