Over The Edge |
| [00:01.95] |
|
| [00:03.02] |
The Kinks - Phobia |
| [00:05.22] |
|
| [00:07.22] |
|
| [00:09.36] |
|
| [00:17.12] |
Everybody is a victim of society |
| [00:21.17] |
Comedy, tragedy, vaudeville and variety |
| [00:25.31] |
Pantomime players in the grand tradition |
| [00:29.97] |
Winners and losers till the intermission |
| [00:34.37] |
|
| [00:36.00] |
Girl, I know the world's a stage |
| [00:40.81] |
That's what the poet said |
| [00:42.90] |
But I think our weird relationship |
| [00:45.33] |
Is way above my head |
| [00:47.13] |
I'll be your Casanova whipping by |
| [00:49.45] |
If that's what you desire |
| [00:51.33] |
But once I start performing |
| [00:53.58] |
I can't easily retire |
| [00:55.82] |
I'll swing on a trapeze |
| [00:56.76] |
I'll jump through hoops, and I'll eat fire |
| [00:59.55] |
Be a human cannon ball |
| [01:01.77] |
And walk on the high wire |
| [01:03.64] |
Put on make-up, wear a wig |
| [01:06.17] |
I'll be your tragic clown |
| [01:08.09] |
But once you've got me up there |
| [01:11.10] |
I can't easily come down |
| [01:13.40] |
|
| [01:14.15] |
Don't drive me over the edge of it |
| [01:17.26] |
Can't you see I've got mixed-up emotions |
| [01:21.21] |
Joined the crowd just to be part of it |
| [01:25.98] |
That was the start of it |
| [01:28.16] |
Oh, now I'm over the edge |
| [01:33.25] |
(Don't drive me over the edge of it |
| [01:36.90] |
Oh, over the edge |
| [01:42.64] |
|
| [01:44.19] |
The world is turning upside-down |
| [01:46.75] |
Civilization's dead, over the edge |
| [01:49.40] |
Economic turmoil, now the world is in the red |
| [01:52.59] |
Democracy's a shadow of its former glory |
| [01:57.22] |
Law and orders broken-down |
| [01:59.45] |
End of story |
| [02:00.88] |
|
| [02:10.19] |
My next door neighbour's totally snapped |
| [02:12.43] |
He's gone over the edge |
| [02:14.13] |
He's putting up barbed wire barricades |
| [02:16.24] |
Around the garden hedge |
| [02:18.11] |
And planting land mines on the lawn |
| [02:21.84] |
He's gone barmy |
| [02:24.00] |
According to his wife, he's formed a secret army |
| [02:28.22] |
Ever since he got laid off |
| [02:30.16] |
Something inside snapped |
| [02:32.40] |
His wife says he's gone 'round the twist |
| [02:34.63] |
Now there's no turning back |
| [02:36.54] |
All night he waits in the garden shed |
| [02:39.06] |
For the enemy to attack |
| [02:40.82] |
A suburban vigilante |
| [02:42.32] |
Dressed up in a union jack |
| [02:44.94] |
He's over the edge, oh, over the edge |
| [02:46.76] |
|
| [02:53.48] |
Don't drive me over the edge of it |
| [02:58.23] |
Woman, you are gonna drive me |
| [03:04.72] |
Totally over the edge |
| [03:06.57] |
Is it yes or is it no |
| [03:08.64] |
Are you gonna take the pledge |
| [03:10.66] |
The pressures of society are getting to your brain |
| [03:14.95] |
And forced you to act weird |
| [03:17.08] |
And put me under all this strain |
| [03:19.12] |
But don't drive me over the edge of it |
| [03:23.46] |
Stop while I've still got emotions |
| [03:27.72] |
Joined the crowd, just to be part of it |
| [03:32.06] |
That was the start of it |
| [03:34.44] |
Oh, over the edge |
| [03:39.57] |
Don't drive me over the edge of it |
| [03:43.06] |
Oh, over the edge |
| [03:47.86] |
Don't drive me over the edge of it |
| [03:51.32] |
|
| [03:52.50] |
Everybody is a victim of society |
| [03:55.44] |
Comedy, tragedy |
| [03:57.86] |
Vaudeville, variety |
| [03:59.88] |
Pantomime players in the grand tradition |
| [04:04.15] |
Forced into roles that leave them totally driven |
| [04:16.00] |
Right over the edge |
