Glamour And Pain Lyrics by Joe Jackson

Glamour And Pain Lyrics

    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 again
    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 lumière
    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

    Glamour and pain
