|
I'm not surprised it's come to this |
|
Sooner or later there must be another's kiss |
|
Behind that kiss a promise of a life of bliss |
|
Yeah, great, I won't be taking the bait |
|
I'd rather drown |
|
And I will not turn my whole life upside down |
|
Imagine everything you've done |
|
Under a microscope on view for everyone |
|
And if the king of circumspection's here |
|
He's come in vain, I won't be sharing the blame |
|
I wear the crown |
|
And I will not turn my whole life upside down |
|
Nothing's good enough for me |
|
To shake me from complacency |
|
I've made my mind up and I'll never be... |
|
The kind of man to make a choice |
|
For if I hold my tongue I'll never lose my voice |
|
If each attempted act of sabotage destroys all hope |
|
I won't be needing the rope |
|
I'm gagged and bound |
|
And I will not turn my whole life upside down |
|
And if the genie was set free |
|
And by the laws of things like that, he's indebted to me |
|
I'd bury my three wishes deep down in the ground |
|
So they will not turn my whole life upside down |
|
Though I appreciate the aim |
|
Tell Andy Warhol's ghost that he can keep his fame |
|
I'd only use it to make everything the same again |
|
So don't applaud 'til the end |
|
I'm not around, 'cause I will not turn my whole life upside down |
|
Nothing's good enough for me |
|
To shake me from complacency |
|
I've made my mind up, I won't make a sound |
|
And I will not turn my whole life upside down |
|
Oh, and I will not turn my whole life upside down |
