Parasite Lyrics

Parasite lyrics

Lifting the mask from from a local clown

 Feeling down like him

 Seeing the light in a station bar

 And travelling far in sin

 Sailing downstairs to the northern line

 Watching the shine of the shoes

 And hearing the trial of the people there

 Who's to care if they lose.

 And take a look you may see me on the ground

 For I am the parasite of this town.

 

 Dancing a jig in a church with chimes

 A sign of the times today

 And hearing no bell from a steeple tall

 People all in dismay

 Falling so far on a silver spoon

 Making the moon for fun

 And changing a rope for a size too small

 People all get hung.

 Take a look and see me coming through

 For I am the parasite who travels two by two.

 

 When lifting the mask from a local clown

 And feeling down like him

 And I'm seeing the light in a station bar

 And travelling far in sin

 And I'm sailing downstair to the northern line

 Watching the shine of the shoes

 And hearing the trials of the people there

 Who's to care if they lose.

 And take a look you may see me on the ground

 For I am the parasite of this town.

 And take a look you may see me in the dirt

 For i am the parasite who hangs from your skirt.
