Bow Down

You opened my mail out at the seams
Now you know I live beyond my means
Beneath my bed there's gold in the earth
Above the price that gold is now worth

Never to bow down
Don't you ever slow down

You live with a prince, you live with a cape
You see things my memoirs just won't say
Don't be so down, don't be so sad
Start counting bodies we'll both go half mad

Never to bow down
Don't you ever slow down

Break it to me gently, speak in our code
We're show people, speak in our code
Bad news I'll leave, bad news I'll grieve
Good and bad, baby I'll leave

Never to bow down
Don't you ever slow down

I left the house with all the lights on
You see the lights nothing is wrong
The television works and the telephone rings
And late at night all good children they sing

Never to bow down
Don't you ever slow down
Never to bow down
Don't you ever slow down

Bow down too far, bow down no
Bow down don't, don't you ever slow down
Slow down, bow down, bow down, slow down
Bow down, slow down, bow down, slow down
