Shakespears Sister

It's a cracked-up city
As the dawn hits the sky
All those beautiful dreamers
They go home to wonder why

We're all glued to the scene
And strung out
On some strange high

Hey boy
When the money knows
You can't help but cry
When the colon blows

It's a trip
When you're young and hip
It's a dream
Such a beautiful scene
Wow

It's a cracked up city
But it makes you feel alive
If you lose it you can get it back
On the other side

So come on
You're too pretty to think
"I'm suicide"

Call on me anytime
Day or night
I might not be in
But I might

It's a trip
When you're young and hip
It's a dream
Such a beautiful scene
Wow

It's a trip
There's no way back
It's a sin
Come on let's do it again
Wow

You've got to laugh about it
Cover it up
Cover it up (yeah yeah yeah)
Don't have to advertise it:
Smile

It's a trip
When you're young and hip
It's a dream
Such a beautiful scene
Wow

It's a trip
When you're young and hip
It's a dream
Such a beautiful scene
Wow

Love and desire
It gets me higher
Love and desire
It gets me higher

Shakespear’s Sister is a pop-rock duo formed in 1988 by Siobhan Fahey, who left Bananarama after disagreements with the musical direction the band was going. The band was originally intended to be Fahey’s solo project, but immediately became a duo after she recruited American singer Marcella Detroit (aka Marcy Levy).
