Tell you how the story stands

I'm a victim in your hands

Got me pleading on my bended knees

That's the way the picture reads

It's a horror show

It's a body blow

And it's gone too far



Tell me a reason

Well give me a sign

Somebody somewhere

Throw me a line

Somebody down there

Looking for blood

Off with the horses

Into the flood



Now you've made a big mistake

Spoiled the icing on the wedding cake

Killed the goose that laid the golden egg

This time babe you're going to have to beg

It's a crying shame

It's a dying flame

And it's gone too far



Tell me a reason

Give me a sign

Somebody somewhere

Throw me a line

Somebody down there

Looking for blood

Off with the horses

Yeah, into the flood



So you pulled the perfect crime

Turned the water into wine



Got me on my bended knees

Now's the time to make me squeeze



Came in from the freezing cold

Turned the glitter into gold (from the barbican)





It's a bloody mess

It's a body-blow

And it's gone too far
