Up on the Catwalk

Up on the catwalk a big wheel is spinnin'

And dollars to Deutschmarks, and pennies from Heaven

And up on the catwalk there's one hundred million

With letters from thousands that say, "Just who are you?"

There's one thousand names that can spring up in my mind

But you'd call it blackmail and that's just not my kind

And up on the catwalk, and up on the catwalk

And I don't know why

I will be there, I will be there, I will be there

I will be there, I will be there

Up on the catwalk there's street politicians

That crawl in from Broadway, say, "Then who are you?"

And up on the catwalk there's one thousand post cards

From Montevideo, say that I'll be home soon

Get out of Bombay and go up to Brixton

And look around to see just what is missing

And up on the catwalk, and girls call for mother

And dream of their boyfriends, and I don't know why

I will be there, I will be there, I will be there

I will be there, I will be there

Tonight, under the crystal light, I'll tell you everything I need

Tonight, under the crystal light, surrender everything to me

Uh, uh

Uh, uh

Uh, uh

Uh, uh

Uh, uh

Up on the catwalk and you dress in waist coats

And got brilliantino, and friends of Kim Philby

And float through the night time like manna from Heaven

But, but what do I know? And just what do I know?

And up on the catwalk, and in sweat that glistens

And I don't know why

And I don't know why, I don't know why

I will be there, I will be there, I will be there

I will be there, I will be there

Tonight, under the crystal light, I'll tell you everything I need

Tonight, under the crystal light, surrender everything to me

Angel, angel, angel, angel

Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh

One thousand names that spring up in my mind

One thousand names that spring up in my mind

Like Deodata, Michelangelo, Robert De Niro, so many others

Natasha Kinski, and Martin Luther

There's room for others away from me, oh

Up on the catwalk, up on the catwalk, up on the catwalk

I don't know why

Up on the catwalk, up on the catwalk, up on the catwalk

I don't know why
