[00:46.85]Gee, but it's hard
[00:48.86]When one lowers one's guard to the vultures
[00:58.52]Now, me I regard it
[01:01.85]A torturous hardship that smolders
[01:10.60]Like a peppermint eaten away
[01:16.87]Will I fight? Will I swagger, or sway?
[01:23.96]Tee hee, milady
[01:26.25]She cries like a baby
[01:29.34]Scold us
[01:33.55]Watch her tumbling down, tumbling down
[02:19.70]Heil to the monkey
[02:22.22]We're having a funky reunion
[02:32.03]Wasted and sunk
[02:34.20]He can only have Sunday communion
[02:43.33]He's got nicotine stains in his eyes
[02:49.33]He's got nothing to protect but his pride
[02:56.26]Oh smothered a kiss
[02:58.58]Or be drowned in blissful confusion
[03:05.89]Watch her tumbling down, tumbling down
[03:52.5]Juvenile tale,
[03:53.86]See the Titanic sail into Brighton
[04:03.42]The Hemingway stacatto,
[04:06.19]The tragic bravado can frighten.
[04:14.98]To be here,
[04:16.44]There and everywhere's fine
[04:20.59]But do you have to be so swift all the time ?
[04:27.42]Deliver the dawn to the Moulin Rouge on the horizon
[04:37.12]Watch it tumbling down, tumbling down
[04:49.87]Tumbling down, tumbling down.
[05:03.24]Oh dear, look what they've done to the blues, blues, blues
[05:15.18]Oh dear, look what they've done to the blues, blues, blues
[05:27.28]Oh dear, look what they've done to the blues, blues, blues

Gee, but it's hard
When one lowers one's guard to the vultures
Now, me I regard it
A torturous hardship that smolders
Like a peppermint eaten away
Will I fight? Will I swagger, or sway?
Tee hee, milady
She cries like a baby
Scold us
Watch her tumbling down, tumbling down
Heil to the monkey
We're having a funky reunion
Wasted and sunk
He can only have Sunday communion
He's got nicotine stains in his eyes
He's got nothing to protect but his pride
Oh smothered a kiss
Or be drowned in blissful confusion
Watch her tumbling down, tumbling down
Juvenile tale,
See the Titanic sail into Brighton
The Hemingway stacatto,
The tragic bravado can frighten.
To be here,
There and everywhere's fine
But do you have to be so swift all the time ?
Deliver the dawn to the Moulin Rouge on the horizon
Watch it tumbling down, tumbling down
Tumbling down, tumbling down.
Oh dear, look what they've done to the blues, blues, blues
Oh dear, look what they've done to the blues, blues, blues
Oh dear, look what they've done to the blues, blues, blues
