Sword Of Damocles Lyrics


Richard O'brien Sword Of Damocles


The sword of Damocles is hanging over my head and I've got the feeling someone's
Going to be cutting the thread
Oh woe is me — my life is a misery
Oh can't you see that I'm at the start of a pretty big downer


I woke up this morning with a start when
I fell out of the bed.
That ain't no crime
And left from my dreaming was a feeling of unamiable dread.


That ain't no crime
My high is low — I'm dressed up with no place
to go and all I know is I'm at the start of a pretty big downer.


(That ain't no crime)
Oh no no no no
(Sha la la la that ain't no crime)
(That ain't no crime)
Oh no no no no
(Sha la la la that ain't no crime)
(That ain't no crime)
(Sha la la la that ain't no crime)
(That ain't no crime)


Rocky Horror you need no peace of mind —
and I want to tell you that you're doing just fine
You're the product of another time and feeling down well that's no crime.


That ain't no crime
The sword of Damocles is hanging over my head
That ain't no crime.
And I've got the feeling someone's going to be cutting the thread.
That ain't no crime.


Oh woe is me — my life is a misery.
Oh can't you see that I'm at the start of a pretty big downer.


(That ain't no crime)
Oh no no no no
(Sha la la la that ain't no crime)
