goodness gracious, how advantageous
you’ve got the glaciers to stop in their tracks
this icy feeling has hit the ceiling
there’s no concealing the ever growing cracks
lock all the windows, shut all the doors
it’s about time we gave you the floor
it’s a stupid thing
hold the applause, wait, sound the alarms
we’re at the mercy of all your charms
it’s a stupid thing
I don't buy it but the crowd is quiet
they love the diet you've been feeding them
you've got x-ray glasses and backstage passes
so glad the masses have voted you in
lock all the windows, shut the doors
it’s about time we gave you the floor
it’s such a stupid thing
hold the applause, wait, sound the alarms
we’re at the mercy of all your charms
it’s a stupid thing
and now that we're listening, your face is just glistening with pride
too bad we're naive to the fact that you've swallowed the key
now we're all trapped inside
lock all the windows, shut the doors
it’s about time we gave you the floor
it’s a stupid thing
hold the applause, wait, sound the alarms
we’re at the mercy of all your charms
it’s a stupid thing
