All these years you've been speaking without breathing   Spinning closer to the sun   Had your way with an unsuspecting public   Little threads are all it takes      La, la, la      I have learned all your secrets, so familiar   I know where you lay your head   Fear of God and a disappointing father   Holds the hand around your neck      La, la, la      Sometimes I could just choke myself with laughter   Sometimes everything's so true   So when you come down from your death-defying labors   I'll still be in love with you      La, la, la
