Feel so washed up today
Haven't really got much to say
Blood on the pillow on my bed
Explains the pain that's in my headSometimes I don't know just where to go
Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well
'Cos I'm walking on a high wire
High wireOh won't someone let me in
I'm stinking and I'm full of gin
No need to close the door so fast
I'm very fragile not built to last
Sometimes I don't know just where to go
Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well
'Cos I'm walking on a high wire
High wireHave to pull it together
We're in for some stormy weather
Have to pull it together
We're in for some nasty weatherHigh wire, high wire
high wire, high wire
high wire, high wire
It really isn't too much fun
Sitting round waiting for the night to come
It's almost time to put on my suit of cool
I may be an idiot but indeed I am no foolSometimes I don't know just where to go
Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well
'Cos I'm walking on a high wire
