Crippled Ballerinas
The operation was a disaster
I've had enough of black gas, plastic sheets
White tubes, nylon straps and scalpels
The monitor went crazy
Someone snipped the wrong artery
And now I lie in a cold, rubber-sheeted bed
Though nothing was ever said
I, try, to dance, for a while
Clumping in irons
But it's just a dream, it's just a memory
Only in my dreams, only in my memories
I'll never walk again, Oh no, no, no, no
All, those crippled ballerinas
All, those crippled ballerinas
The operation was a disaster
The sun never reaches the back of the house
Here where I sit
Only illness loves me, her pain is fantastic
I tried the irons, they didn't fit
I, try, to dance, for a while
Clumping in irons
But it's just a dream, it's just a memory
Only in my dreams, only in my memories
I'll never waltz again, Oh no, no, no, no
All, those crippled ballerinas
All, those crippled ballerinas
All through the night, where is the girl
Where is her heart and where is she now
All through the night, where is the girl
Where is her heart and where is she now
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I rip the posters down from my bedroom wall
I'm not a big star any more
Another radio station finally shuts down for the night
I've had enough of black gas, plastic sheets
White tubes, nylon straps and scalpels
The monitor went crazy
Someone snipped the wrong artery
And now I lie in a cold, rubber-sheeted bed
Though nothing was ever said
I, try, to dance, for a while
Clumping in irons
But it's just a dream, it's just a memory
Only in my dreams, only in my memories
I'll never walk again, Oh no, no, no, no
All, those crippled ballerinas
All, those crippled ballerinas
The operation was a disaster
The sun never reaches the back of the house
Here where I sit
Only illness loves me, her pain is fantastic
I tried the irons, they didn't fit
I, try, to dance, for a while
Clumping in irons
But it's just a dream, it's just a memory
Only in my dreams, only in my memories
I'll never waltz again, Oh no, no, no, no
All, those crippled ballerinas
All, those crippled ballerinas
All through the night, where is the girl
Where is her heart and where is she now
All through the night, where is the girl
Where is her heart and where is she now
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I rip the posters down from my bedroom wall
I'm not a big star any more
Another radio station finally shuts down for the night
