Playing Nero

Lyrics

Can't believe what I'm hearing Stone cold statuary blue On the telephone Can't believe what I'm feeling Bone cold after what you said In blood, written bold Raspberry red Up upon the rock Where an angel stood With a rifle stock Underneath his foot No matter anyway I have won the part On this stage today Playing Nero They said he would fall And fall he did Before he had to crawl Can't believe what I'm hearing Stone, stone, stone cold statuary blue On the telephone Can't believe how I'm reeling A spinning top All around my head A dirty mop Wringing out the dead Can't you make it stop Remember what you said Playing Nero They said he would fall And fall he did Before he had to crawl Can't believe what I'm seeing So sick The tenement block The crumbling brick Can't believe what I'm feeling Bone cold After what you said In blood, written bold Raspberry red Playing Nero They said he would fall And fall he did And fall he did And fall he did
