Tumbling Down - Cockney Rebel

Gee but it's hard when one lowers

One's guard to the vultures

Now me I regard it a tortuous hardship that smoulders

Like a peppermint eaten away

Will I fight Will I swagger or sway

Hee-hee my Lady she cries like a baby to scold us

See her tumbling down tumbling down

Hail to the monkey we're having a funky reunion

Wasted and sunk he can only have Sunday communion

He got nicotine stains in his eyes

He got nothing to protect but his pride

Oh smother the kiss or be drownded in

Blissful confusion

See it tumbling down tumbling down

Juvenile tale see the Titanic sail into Brighton

The Hemingway stacatto the tragic bravado can frighten

To be here there and everywhere's fine

But do you have to be so swift all the time

Deliver the dawn to the Moulin Rouge on the horizon

Watch it tumbling down tumbling down

Tumbling down tumbling down

Oh dear look what they've done to the

Blues blues blues

Oh dear look what they've done to the

Blues blues blues

Oh dear look what they've done to the

Blues blues blues

Oh dear look what they've done to the

Blues blues blues

Oh dear look what they've done to the

Blues blues blues

Oh dear look what they've done to the

Blues blues blues

Oh dear look what they've done to the

Blues blues blues
