Brazzaville - High Life şarkı sözleri

High Life, sing me a sweet song
You used to think I was grand
Downtown Chelsea and Soho
I held the world in my hand

I flew the Concorde to Paris
Sniffed lines of cocaine for free
Champagne & mangoes for breakfast
Warm nights & dawns by the sea

OD’ed
In the afternoon
With her diamonds and pearls
And a burnt spoon

Now I’m a little bit older
And I’m in need of a friend
I’ve got some pills & some liquor
And soon I’ll see you again

OD’ed
In the afternoon
With her diamonds and pearls
And a burnt spoon

Honey
What you gonna do?
When your beauty and youth
Are behind you?
