Vain boys are gonna have to swallow their pride this time
|
So let the punishment fit the crime
|
It's under the table
|
Under your skin
|
Into the cable
|
Is this the death of the glory you're in?
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Black sails in the sunset
|
White noise going yakety-yak
|
All the money in the world will never bring your body back
|
Is it some mysterious dance nobody can do?
|
Thought I knew all the steps quite clearly
|
I don't have a clue
|
Oooh
|
|
You're Cinderella with a ball and chain
|
And the shoe seems to fit you
|
You tell the truth sometimes but
|
You wouldn't know it if it hit you
|
Is this some new trick
|
Wired up in your head?
|
Do you make me sick
|
Or was I just force fed?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
