The Byrds Citizen Kane lyrics

Fat ugly, fat man swam
In a red tire made of stone
A painted lady paddled next to him
With two poodles on her lap
Garbo quietly picked a flower
While the chauffeur won his check again
And Miss. Barrymore took a noon day nap
And diamonds fell like rain

Cisco kid and a bald headed waitress
Trapped 'neath a bed of brass
The French cook served them chocolates
And some cold cuts on the grass
Louilla ripped her zebra pants
In the polo lounge
And Errol Flynn was not let in
'Cause he was coming down

Up in Zanadu, diamonds fell like rain
Citizen Kane was king, poor Citizen Kane


Valentino suddenly appeared
In his midnight blue tuxedo
Had a falcon on his shoulder
Eating chicken from his hands
And Fatty Arbuckle waddled by
On his way to the bath house green
And Frankenstein ate the leading lady

And licked the carcass clean

Up in Zanadu, diamonds fell like rain
Citizen Kane was king, poor Citizen Kane

Up in Zanadu, diamonds fell like rain
Citizen Kane was king, poor Citizen Kane
