"this is a mad house," she goes straight for the palm |
|
"you'll be luck to make it till tuesday" |
|
I say "you must be joking, the idea's absurd" |
|
But the picture's hanging on her every word |
|
But she comes right back, her black velvet cat |
|
Has gone smiled all over the carpet |
|
He says "i know my rights, i've got nothing to say" |
|
But he cried all night on the night 'n' day |
|
I've seen the naked flame |
|
And i'm turning my eyes away |
|
"yes it's a mad house," the minister shouts |
|
But his words drown out in the crowd |
|
He says "i open my mouth and some idiot speaks" |
|
So he strikes the service for another two weeks |
|
Then the party's over, it's a free-for-all |
|
I'm under the table, i got my foot in the door |
|
Well she's a natural leader, and she's bound to win |
|
She's just waiting for the burning to begin |
|
I've seen the naked flame |
|
It's gonna burn me again |
|
I'm dying down in the rain |
|
And i'm turning my eyes away |
