The Sword of Damocles

The sword of Damocles

Is hanging over my head

And I've got the feeling

Someone's gonna be cuttin' the thread

Oh woe is me

My life is a misery

Oh can't you see

I'm at the start of a pretty big downer

I woke up this morning with a start

When I fell out of bed

(That ain't no crime)

And left from my dreaming

Was a feeling of unnameable 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

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime

That ain't no crime

The sword of Damocles is hanging

Over my head

(That ain't no crime)

And I got the feeling

Someone's gonna be cuttin' the thread

(That ain't no crime)

Oh woe is me

My life is a mystery

And can't you see

I'm at the start of a pretty big downer

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime (oh no no no)

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime (oh no no no)

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime

That ain't no crime

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime (oh no no no)

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime (oh no no no)

Sha-la-la-la-la that ain't no crime

That ain't no crime

Sha-la-la
