Bring Me The Disco King

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You promised me the ending would be clear

You'd let me know when the time was now

Don't let me know when you're opening the door

Stab me in the dark, let me disappear

Memories that flutter like bats out of hell

Stab you from the city spires

Life wasn't worth the balance

Or the crumpled paper it was written on

Don't let me know we're invisible

Don't let me know we're invisible

Hot cash days that you trailed around

Cold cold nights under chrome and glass

Led me down river of perfumed limbs

Sent me to the streets with the good time girls

Don't let me know we're invisible

Don't let me know we're invisible

We could dance, dance, dance thru' the fire

Dance, dance, dance thru' the fire

Feed me no lies

I don't know about you

I don't know about you

Breathe through the years

I don't know about you

I don't know about you

Bring me the disco king

I don't know about you

I don't know about you

Dead or alive

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king

Spin-offs with those who slept like corpses

Damp morning rays in the stiff bad clubs

Killing time in the '70s

Smelling of love through the moist winds

Don't let me know when you're opening the door

Close me in the dark, let me disappear

Soon there'll be nothing left of me

Nothing left to release

Dance, dance, dance thru' the fire

Dance, dance, dance thru' the fire

Feed me no lies

I don't know about you

I don't know about you

Breathe through the years

I don't know about you

I don't know about you

Bring me the disco king

I don't know about you

I don't know about you

Dead or alive

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king

Bring me the disco king
