Ivory Stairs

Rumour has it that you got a well laid plan

To make yourself a singularly self-made man

Imported shirts from Yves St. Laurent

You got everything that you want

Catch you running to your candy colored Chevrolet

Consumer consumed, the loser has to pay

The higher you climb, the deeper you go

Talking about a change, nothing changed so slow

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Never gonna get anywhere

Slipping on the first step, can't get a good grip

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Any kid on the street with his ear to the ground

Knows credit card conspiracy and flesh by the pound

Harlequin dancin' `tween the sun and the moon

They got you dancing to a gallows tune

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Never gonna get anywhere

Slipping on the first step, can't get a good grip

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Never gonna get anywhere

Slipping on the first step, can't get a good grip

Climbing up the ivory stairs

(Solo)

Oh no, you found the door

Too late you found that you never got the key

Oh no, in the confusion

Don't turn your weary eyes on me

Harlequin dancin' `tween the sun and the moon

Got you dancing to a gallows tune

Tell me what happened to your well laid plan

To make yourself a singularly self-made man

Catch you running to your candy colored Chevrolet

Consumer consumed, the loser has to pay

The higher you climb, the deeper you go

Talking about a change, nothing changed so slow

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Never gonna get anywhere

Slipping on the first step, can't get a good grip

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Climbing up the ivory stairs

Never gonna get anywhere

Slipping on the first step, can't get a good grip

Climbing up the ivory stairs
