Fallen Angel

All the fallen angels
Roostin’ in this place
Count back the weeks on worried fingers
Virgin mother whatserface

You don’t need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favourite shoes
And put your blues on cruise control

All the gelded mongrels
Bare their teeth for you
Drag your feathers ‘cross the dance floor
Throw your shapes electric blue

You don’t need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favourite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control

Don’t fall to pieces
Don’t fall to pieces

You don’t need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favourite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control
