Dinner at Eight (Live) lyrics
by Alan Cumming
[Chorus]
No matter how strong
I’m going to take you down with one little stone
I’m going to break you down and see what you are worth
What you are really worth to me
[Verse 1]
Dinner at eight
Was ok before the toast full of gleams
It was great before those old magazines
Got us started up again
Actually it was probably me again
But why is it so
That I've always been the one who must go That I've always been the one told to flee
When in fact you were the one long ago
Actually in the drifting white snow you left me
So put up your fists and I'll put up mine
No running away from the scene of the crime
God's chosen a place somewhere near the end of the world
Somewhere near the end of our lives
So 'til then, no daddy don’t be surprised
If I were to see the tears in your eyes
Then I know it had to be long ago
Actually in the drifting white snow
You loved me
[Chorus]
I’m going to take you down with one little song
I’m going to break you down and see what you are worth
What you are really worth to me
