lyrics

SWINGING FROM THE CHANDELIERS

Crestfallen without a parachute.
Quite unlike me you haven't got a clue.
Forlorn you behave like King Canute
As nothing in your world is tickety-boo.

I've been swinging from the chandeliers
While you were all hanging from your nooses.
Your boundaries became my frontiers
While I subtly ignored every one of your excuses.

Surreptitiously I climbed into your vision
While you were reading burning books by the fireside.
Deliciously I swooped in and out of indecision
While playing Dr Jekyll to your Mr Hyde.

I've been swinging from the chandeliers....

Chill out, you're absolute zero.
Burnt out, you've been extinguished.
Crash out, a failed superhero.
No doubt, certainty relinquished.

I've been swinging from the chandeliers....
