Lyrics

Playground Twist

Hanging
Hanging
Hanging

Hanging from your daisy chains
Swinging in the trees
Running from your enemies

And falling on your knees
And falling on your knees
On your knees
On your knees
Get down on your knees

Roll the dice
You three blind mice
Did you ever see
Such a thing in your life
You swallow the trail
But still arrive
Inside your entrails

Hanging
Hanging
Hanging

Hanging out at party games
Dancing in the shadows
Up and down on the see-saw

Balancing the scales
Balancing the scales
You're drunk
You're drunk
Yet you're balancing the scales

Someone to blame
Someone to shame
Someone not you can claim
Go back to pass the parcel
And follow the leader

Hanging
Hanging
Hanging

Hanging from your climbing frames
Swinging in the gallows
Laughing with your buddies

But you can drown when you're shallow
You can drown when you're shallow
You can drown
Drown, drown
Drown, drown, drown, drown, drown

Drown
Drown
Drown
