Anton Sword - Song of Stings Lyrics

I know your doorman hates me, I can see it in his smile
He bares his teeth to greet me just like a crocodile
Your father recognized me when we passed in the club
But when I tried to shake his hand he grabbed his hat and gloves

Yeah we must destroy our lives to prove that we're alive
So we dance the song of stings to show the way out of the hive

Under the pianoforte in your parents' living room
The wooden Indian observed my fingers make you swoon
Your boyfriend introduced us on East End Avenue
His shirts all cost a fortune but he never had a clue

Cause we must destroy our lives to prove that we're alive
So we dance the song of stings to show the way out of the hive

We were so very naughty down on the marble floor
We broke the crystal bottle to watch the honey pour
You wanted so to try it, I let you have your way
You didn't seem disappointed, I really have to say

Your red shoes were for dancing, for dress-up and pretend
But now the time has come for our conspiracy to end
Your sister's next door waiting for lesson number three
I doubt that you'll be seeing too much more of me

Cause we must destroy our lives to prove that we're alive
So we dance the song of stings to show the way out of the hive
Yeah we must destroy our lives to prove that we're alive
So we dance the song of stings to show the way out of the hive
