Lyric: Robert
|
|
Remembered your name
|
Evidently, you've forgotten mine.
|
You know a lot of people
|
I know, a mind dulled by work and wine.
|
|
I got hired but I got tired of draining the pool for you.
|
I got tired but not so blue,
|
To see the cracks in you.
|
I got hired against my wish,
|
With better prospects, after this.
|
|
Ten leaves,
|
Ten leaves, on a river bank.
|
Just like the glass
|
>From the champagne bottles smashed where they sank.
|
|
chorus
|
|
Your interest in freaks
|
The side show, the low life holds nothing for me.
|
Because I have seen it
|
Almost been it, and it's not my cup of thrills.
|
|
chorus
|
|
Fade: on swimming pools, hiring and tiring, and
|
anything after this.
