The Maestro

Caro Emerald · The Shocking Miss Emerald [2013]

Presence, elegance, an unmistakable dominance

Behind those steely eyes, anything you know is coincidence

No one seems to know anything about his age, just his name

He's always dressed for fame

Ooh, the Kaiser is the maestro



Let a girl dream a bit

To wear a garment so delish

I'd be out of my mind inside his designs

The ultimate can't miss

Give a new ingénue

A gift she can't buy from you

But if I had to pay I'd sure find a way

To break the bank

I'd break the bank that day



Ladies, his designs make the words fall out of a pantomime

Colors, how they flow, go from avant-garde to beyond sublime

History and mystery, he stops the hands of time

The magic's in his mind

'Cause the Kaiser is the maestro



Let a girl dream a bit

To wear a garment so delish

I'd be out of my mind inside his designs

The ultimate can't miss

Give a new ingénue

A gift she can't buy from you

But if I had to pay I'd sure find a way

To break the bank

I'd break the bank that day



Ooh, he is the maestro

He is the maestro

(Maestro, maestro)



Man speaking:

"You must never think that you saw it all

You have always the eyes open

You have to be like a roof with lots of antennas.

Get all the images,

And you don't say I don't like this because it was better before

This is not chic, this is not elegant

You know, every period has the taste it deserves

Vulgar, not vulgar

We don't know, it's not up to us

To be the judge of times."
