Bring On The Dancing Horses

Echo And The Bunnymen · Killing Moon: The Best Of Echo & The Bunnymen [2007]

Jimmy Brown, made of stone

Charlie Clown, no way home

Bring on the dancing horses, headless and all alone

Shiver and say the words of every lie you've heard



First I'm gonna make it

And then I'm gonna break it 'til it falls apart

Hating all the faking and shaking

While I'm breaking your brittle heart



Billy stands all alone

Sinking sand, skin and bone

Bring on the dancing horses wherever they may roam

Shiver and say the words of every lie you've heard



First I'm gonna make it

And then I'm gonna break it 'til it falls apart

Hating all the faking and shaking

While I'm breaking your brittle heart

Brittle heart, brittle heart, brittle heart

And my brittle heart goes



Jimmy Brown, made of stone

Charlie Clown, no way home

Bring on the headless horses wherever they may roam

Shiver and say the words of every lie you've heard



First I'm gonna make it

And then I'm gonna break it 'till it falls apart

Hating all the faking and shaking

While you're breaking my brittle heart

Brittle heart, brittle heart

And my brittle heart goes



Bring on the new messiah wherever he may roam

Bring on the new messiah wherever he may roam

Bring on the new messiah wherever he may roam

Bring on the new messiah wherever he may roam
