Tell you how the story stands
I'm a victim in your hands
You got me pleading on bended knee
that's the way the picture reads
it's a horror show
it's a body blow
and it's gone too far |

Tell you how the story stands
I'm a victim in your hands
Got me pleading on my bended knees
that's the way the picture reads
It's a horror show
It's a body blow
and it's gone too far |
|
It's a joke at best
it's a bloody mess
and it's gone too far |

Tell me a reason
give me sign
somebody somewhere
throw me a line
Somebody's out there
looking for blood
off with the horses
and on with flood |
|
Tell me a reason
well give me a sign
somebody somewhere
throw me a line
somebody down there
looking for blood
Off with the horses
into the flood |

Now you've made a big mistake
spoiled the icing on the wedding cake
killed the goose that laid the golden egg

it's the final straw
it's the fatal flaw
and it's gone too far |

it's a crying shame
it's a dying flame
and it's gone too far |

Now you've made your big mistake
spoiled the icing on the cake
you killed the goose that killed the golden egg
'fraid you're gonna have to beg

Tell me a reason
give me a sign
somebody somewhere
throw me a line
somebody down there
looking for blood
Off with the horses
yeah, into the flood
So you pulled the perfect crime
turned the water into wine
got me on my bended knees
Now's the time to make me squeeze
Came in from the freezing cold
Turned the glitter into gold (from the Barbican)
It's a bloody mess
it's a body-blow
and it's gone too far |
