sharks on my legs

"Sharks on my Legs"
To you. I'll never forget the day you washed up on the beach. 

Speak the speech,
we’re closer now: we’re closer to the sky
and we’re reaching for the stars.

To love so mighty a queen
took its toll on my body:
now I’m a junkie.

But these are my golden years
or my salad days: reaching for the sky.

And I wish there’d be no more milk left
for us both to lick.
I’m the dancing bird of paradise,
I lost my poor meatball
and I never sneezed

But to love so mighty a queen
took its toll on me:
now I’m a junkie.

(Oh but I’m still reaching for the stars,
reaching for the stars!)

I burn my time: four minutes every day.
I smoke my pain away,
and I’m a sucker, I’m a sucker for the dark side.
I’m afraid, oh I’m so afraid!

I left the safety of the shore
I’m swimming in shark infested, shark infested waters

Sharks on my legs, sharks on my legs!
