Deep in the High - Charming Disaster

Give me a kiss before I’m to go

A lingering kiss to keep me warm

Pack your things and don’t tell a soul

My clumsy dancer, my good luck charm

I think of you when I’m up in the air (Oooh)

Things we’ll do when we get out of here (Oooh)

The net stretched to catch me’s the trap that I’m in (Oooh)

My future’s in pictures all over your skin (Oooh)

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

I swing on a wire high over it all

I look down at the sky and up at the floor

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

We were so young and innocent

Back then when we first met

You were so tender and sweet

I cherish the memory

Words that you said to me

You swept me right off my feet

Now, I know a couple things (Oooh)

There’s our life in the ring (Oooh)

Then there’s the life that you live (Oooh)

You’ve grown cold and distant (Oooh)

It’s making me desperate (Oooh)

Something is going to give (Oooh)

Beware the snake charmer with the lazy green eye

She’s a hotheaded harpy with a murderous mind

I’ve been in her coils for ten years of my life

A pox on these rings which do nothing but bind

It must have been madness when we were wed (Oooh)

The liquor of passion gone straight to our heads (Oooh)

Ever since then there’s been pain and regret (Oooh)

Bile in our hearts and snakes in our bed (Oooh)

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

We had our time darling, that time is no more

I look down at the sky and up at the floor

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

You’re a bastard

Seedy unscrupulous

Candy ass dilettante

Lazy Lothario

Rat turd

You’re a bastard

Self-centered, ignorant

Cheap inconsiderate

Two-timing, impotent

Layabout flatulent

Mama’s boy

Drunken disaster

You’re a son of a whore

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

I loved you too much if I loved you at all

I look down at the sky and up at the floor

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

I know that you lied to me

I’ve got a memory

Long as an elephant’s trunk

I’ll make you remember me

Now I’m your enemy

You will regret what you’ve done

Think of all of the years we spent (Oooh)

Under this circus tent (Oooh)

Now I am wondering why (Oooh)

You’ll know what I meant (Oooh)

It’ll look like an accident (Oooh)

When I teach you how to fly (Oooh)

He flies through the air with the greatest of ease

The daring young man on the flying trapeze

His movements are graceful, the girls he does please

The daring young man on the flying trapeze

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

I swing on a wire high over it all

I loved you too much if I loved you at all

We had our time darling, that time is no more

I look down at the sky and up at the floor

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall

Deep in the high that does nothing but fall
