The Go-Betweens - Bow Down lyrics

rate me

You opened my mail

Apart at the seams

Now you know I live beyond my means

Beneath my bed

There's gold in the earth

Above the price

That gold is now worth

Never to Bow Down

Don't you ever slow down

You live with a prince

You live with a cape

Yous see things my memoirs just won't say

Don't be so down

Don't be so sad

Start counting bodies

We'll both go half mad

Never to Bow Down

Don't you ever slow down

Break it to me gently

Speak in our code

We're show people

Speak in our code

Bad news I'll leave

Bad news I'll grieve

Good and bad, baby I'll leave

Never to Bow Down

Don't you ever slow down

I left the house with all the lights on

You see the lights

Nothing is wrong

The television works

The telephone rings

And late at night all good children they sing

Never to Bow Down

Don't you ever slow down

Never to Bow Down

Don't you ever slow down

Bow Down too far

Bow Down no

Bow Down don't

Don't you ever slow down

Slow down Bow Down Bow Down slow down Bow Down

Slow down Bow Down ... Slow Down
