lyrics

I’m a bell-hop,
Dancing around with bells on,
And I’ve had a frown on for a long time,
And I don’t know where the times gone to stay,

And I’m happy,
But I know that I’m not quite happy,
To be on the dance floor,
With left feet on but I’ll stay,

And I’m round,
Keep spinning and spinning around,
And I think I’m gonna hit the ground,
And I never sing at you,
And I never want to be here,

Everything moves at once,
I can’t hear the tune out she says,
I would only dance with you all out,

If that would make sense,
But I know that I’m not quiet with everyone,
To dance alone with only socks,
Missed I think, pretend, own, flickering like a

Beast
And everything’s a feat,
Falling down touching feet,
But I could just stick alone and there’s only one left,

And I can’t outrun this night,
Can’t outrun this night,
Can’t outrun this night,
And I can’t outrun this night,
Can’t outrun this night,
Can’t outrun this night,

Ahhhhh Give me some lines
Tell us, light fades on me
Lines, give me some lines
Give up my face on this da a ance
