Rocky Horror - Sword Of Damocles lyrics

The Sword of Damocles is hangin' over my head

And I've got the feelin' someone's gonna be cuttin' the thread

Oh! Woe is me! My life is a misery

And can't you see

That I'm at the start of a pretty big downer.

I woke up this mornin' with a start when I fell out of bed (that ain't no crime)

And left from my dream it was a feelin' of un-nameable dread (that ain't no crime)

My high is low, I'm dressed up with no place to go!

And all I know

Is I'm at the start of a pretty big downer.

Chorus: Sha la la la that ain't no crime

Sha la la la that ain't no crime

Sha la la la that ain't no crime that ain't no...CRIME!

The Sword of Damocles is hangin' over my head (that ain't no crime)

And I've got the feelin' someone's gonna be cuttin' the thread (that ain't no crime)

Oh! Woe is me! My life is a mystery

And can't you see

That I'm at the start of a pretty big downer.

Chorus x 2

Sha la la!
