i stood in the morning the dirty dawn's in i'm still yawning another day
scratch through the paper life's a vapour drying up it's all the same
i look out the window at the rain the liver bird is smiling
and tonight i'll be dancing once again i'm still surviving
my worn out shoes throw down the blues to the pavement of endless crowds
yeah i'm a witness my pathetic sickness that whips me when i'm down
i look out the window at the rain the liver bird she's smiling
and tonight she'll be dancing once again dolly bird surviving
i am the boy that you love yeah to despise
i am an object you mock and criticise
don't believe your eyes or lies
i look out the window at the rain the liver bird she's smiling
and tonight i'll be dancing once again dolly bird surviving
i look out the window at the rain the liver bird she's smiling
and tonight she'll be dancing once again dolly bird she's surviving
