The Lions
Hundreds of lions roaring at their cage she and i go dancing by in sequins, unscathed you must believe us if we act like we're in love we're professional acrobats and we like it dangerous
But in the moment before i hit that pool, i wonder am i doing the fooling, or am i the fool?
There's a risk there's a twist in anything worth doing if you're caught doing what's proper you better stop before you ruin it
She and i were circus lovers, cannonball, somersault, split we were made to smile in sawdust and mean every word of it nothing turned us on more than to turn every eye dah dah dum dah deedle-dy doo
But in the moment before the curtain dropped, i wondered why am i always the bottom, and never the top?
There's a risk there's a twist in anything worth doing if you're caught doing what's proper you better stop before you ruin it
I regret Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com oh i fret that i could never tell the truth but the act was more practical if i just kept on doing it
Hundreds of lions sleeping silent in their cage striped canvas folds, bright satin fades wild animals have to roam free and far despite the occasional tie-up, she was never one for bars
But in our tattoo-ed bodies we'll keep a part of the freak show our mothers warned us about
There's a risk there's a twist in anything worth doing if you're caught doing what's proper you better stop before you ruin it
I regret oh i fret that i could never tell you the truth but we live with what we're given oh! and i will always believe in love
