Dance on Glass Songtext

von The Mission

Run you ragged
Torn and jagged
Sharp tongued, ripped and ragged
Cut it fine the party line
Gee whizz it's happy time
Mirror mirror reflects me hazy
The heat's on I'm running round crazy
Here's the rub don't miss a trick
White trash the punch and kick
I'll kiss the lips that sealed your fate
I'll bring you flowers and place them on your grave

Dream in colour swamped in dust
Sweet dreams all covered in rust
Looking at heaven kaleidescope scene
Time to kill this crazy dream
You are revered for your work with ink and mirrors
You are reknowned for bringing me steel and power

So dance, dance, dance on
Dance, dance, dance, dance on glass
Dance, dance, dance on
Dance, dance, dance
Dance on glass

Shadow Boxing mild and meek
Send me flowers tongue in cheek
Medicine man cast a spell
Head spins round kiss and tell

So dance, dance, dance on
Dance, dance, dance, dance on glass
Dance, dance, dance on
Dance, dance, dance
Dance on glass

Cheeks on fire, dance on glass
A touch of magic a hint of class
Dress in leather play in the dark
Pain and torture leave their mark
Take no prisoners smash the lights
Lunatic fringe kiss and bite
Wild promise cheeks are red
A battle cry and then it's off to bed
You've taken my heart and ripped it from my sleeve
Hold it in your hands grip your fingers and it starts to bleed

So dance, dance, dance on
Dance, dance, dance, dance on glass
Dance, dance, dance on
Dance, dance, dance,
Dance on glass

I shatter at a touch.
