Coalmine Lyrics

Coalmine lyrics

In the centrefold

from the Superteen

and the sparkle paint

and the pretty dreams



And the candycoat

on your candy heart

Well it chipped and broke

and fell apart.



Well all the stars in Hollywood

Shine shine shine

All your love came crashing down

Like an old coalmine



So you're camping out

under a pretty sky

And you seranade

and you justify



And you climb the gate

and rehearse your lines

and you set the plate

and you pour some wine



Well all the stars in Hollywood

shine shine shine

All your love came crashing down

Like an old coalmine



With a picketfence

upon the hill 

With a couple kids

and a Coupe de Ville

and a cup of tea

and a pretty pill

Cause if i can't have 

you no one will



And the sirens wail

on the TV set

You love me you

just don't know it yet



Well all the stars in Hollywood

Shine shine shine

All your love came crashing down

Like an old coalmine
