Stone Cold Sober

Paloma Faith · Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful? [2009]

I'll be the late night lady you won't recognize

I'm a chameleon I'm always in disguise



I'd read your future but it's written in the past

Take a good look might be your last



Don't try to show me

Cause you don't know me

Stay away!!



I can be wider than the wind

119 miles an hour

I'm in a whole other dimension

Dancing doubles on the floor



You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy

But I'm stone cold sober



You're telling me something

But there's nothing cheap as words



I'm walking away before I do affect the birds

Excuse me MR I've got other things to do

Than to stand here listening to you



Stop talking at my face

Take a rocket out to space and...

Stay away!!



I can be wider than the wind

119 miles an hour

I'm in a whole other dimension

Dancing doubles on the floor



You think i'm crazy, a little bit hazy

But I'm stone cold...



I can be wider than the wind

119 miles an hour

I'm in a whole other dimension

Dancing doubles on the floor



You think i'm crazy, a little bit hazy

But I'm stone cold sober



In the madness of the storm

I'm the one to carry on

I don't need no medicine



I'f you're looking for a cure

Don't be knocking at my door

I'll never let you in



Take a rocket out to space

And stay out of my place



I can be wider than the wind

119 miles an hour

I'm in a whole other dimension

Dancing doubles on the floor



You think i'm crazy, a little bit hazy

But I'm stone cold.. .



I can be wider than the wind

119 miles an hour

I'm in a whole other dimension

Dancing doubles on the floor



You think i'm crazy, a little bit hazy

But I'm stone cold sober
