Lyrics

Fallen Angel

All the fallen angels

Roosting in this place

Count back the weeks on worried fingers
Virgin mother what a surface

You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favorite shoes
And put your blues on cruise control

All the gelded mongrels

Bare their teeth for you

Drag your feathers 'cross the dance floor
Throw your shapes electric blue

You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favorite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control

Oh-oo-oh-oo-oh-oo-oh-oo-oh
Don't fall to pieces
Oh-oo-oh-oo-oh-oo-oh-oo-oh
Don't fall to pieces

You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favorite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control
