Angels Ivory Stairs
(Brewster-Neeson-Brewster)
Rumour has it that you got a well-laid plan
to make yourself a singularly self-made man
imported shirt from Ives Saint Laurent
you got everything that you want
Catch you runnin' to your candy coloured Chevrolet
comsume and comsume and the loser has to pay
the higher you climb, the deeper you go
talk about a change, nothing change so slow
Climbing up te ivory stairs, never gonna get anywhere
slipping on the first step, can't get a good grip
climbing up the ivory stairs
The kid on the street with his ear to the ground
knows credit card conspiracies and flesh by the pound
harlequin dance 'tween the sun and the moon
they got you dancing to a gallow's tune
Climbing up te ivory stairs, never gonna get anywhere
slipping on the first step, can't get a good grip
climbing up the ivory stairs
Oh no, you've found the door
too late you found that you never got the key
oh no, in the confusion
don't turn your weary eyes on me
