The lights are bright
Pianos makin' music all the night
They push in pain just like it’s rain
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me
Crowds go by
They're merry makin’ laughter in their eyes
And laughter's fine
But I wonder what became of me
Life's sweet as honey
But still it's funny
I get this feeling that I can't analyse
It's like well maybe
When like a baby
See's a bubble burst before its eyes
I've had my threats
They’ve lit my cigarettes with dollar bills
But I can’t begin [?]
For along the way
Something went astray
And I can't explain
It’s the same champagne
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me
Pianos makin' music all the night
They push in pain just like it’s rain
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me
Crowds go by
They're merry makin’ laughter in their eyes
And laughter's fine
But I wonder what became of me
Life's sweet as honey
But still it's funny
I get this feeling that I can't analyse
It's like well maybe
When like a baby
See's a bubble burst before its eyes
I've had my threats
They’ve lit my cigarettes with dollar bills
But I can’t begin [?]
For along the way
Something went astray
And I can't explain
It’s the same champagne
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me
