The sword of Damocles
Is hanging over my head
And I´ve got the feeling someone´s gonna 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 bed
(That ain´t no crime)
And left from my dreaming was a feeling of unnamable 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 that ain´t no crime
Sha la la la that ain´t no crime
Sha la la la that ain´t no crime
That ain´t no crime

The sword of Damocles
Is hanging over my head
And I´ve got the feeling someone´s gonna 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

Sha la la la that ain´t no crime
Sha la la la that ain´t no crime
Sha la la la that ain´t no crime
That ain´t no crime
