Paul Ellis - The Ball is Coming Down lyrics

Your rating:

                     

 In the city by the river

A man is standing on a bridge

His eyes to heaven to the forgiver

Who flips the coins on who should live



A naked lightbulb in the corner

Naked mary's in an unmade bed

Spilling champagne on her lover

Forgot his name

"what had he said? "



Chorus: it's new year's eve

Tonight in the city

They're tearing the chandeliers down

Boys and girls

All dressed up pretty

The bartenders buying the round



You count your blessings

You say your prayers

Kiss an acquaintance

The ball is coming down

The ball is coming down



Sadie hawkins

She left the ballroom

Mascara running

From a fight

She slaps the doorman's face

In the lobby

He'd only asked her

"are you all right? "



Charlie jenkins

Makes resolutions like

"do not drink" and

"do not fight"

His conscience needs absolution

It keeps him up when it's late at night



Chorus
