Glamour & Pain

I've had that dream again

Where I'm flying thirty feet

Above the street again

Looking though windows, there you are



Sit down to eat again

It's the usual egg foo yung

You watch TV and then

Put the kids to bed



And then I see you

Reaching for my number

Then I hate you even more

I see it all



But no one sees me fly, no one feels my pain

No one hears me cry, no one knows my name

Is glamour and pain, glamour and pain



Do you remember me?

Or just the shiny, shiny shoes

I had you kiss for me

And my legs as smooth as chrome



Were you in ecstasy

As you were pumping out a flood

Of dollar bills for me

I'd cry mascara tears



If only I could give

A fuck about it

And though you can't recall

I see it all



But no one sees me fly, no one feels my pain

No one hears me cry, no one knows my name

Is glamour and pain, glamour and pain



I'm hanging in the air

I look in your window at my own

Lipstick reflection there

And behind it such a precious son et lumire



Of all the normal stuff

About which I'm supposed to care

I'd like to smash right through

And help myself to your silverware



To cut your throat and run

Or maybe I'd just laugh at your expression

Hooray for superwhore

I see it all



But no one sees me fly, no one feels my pain

No one hears me cry, no one knows my name

Is glamour and pain, glamour and pain



See me fly, feel my pain

Hear me cry, know my name

Is glamour and pain
