The Charlatans - Oh! Vanity lyrics

When I was a little child What you'd call a runaway Find me with a latch and key Crawling in the dirt There's a problem just for me I have a thousand worlds to see Always one for running wild And dressing up to be like you Oh vanity, oh vanity Will keep me from insanity This heart of mine would rather die Than live a life of humanity And now I'm all grown up to be A paranoid schizophrenic My friends are all like me and you I cannot tell em what to do There's another world to see Lie down with dogs and you'll get fleas When Paris gave her hand to me It felt like an eternity Now as I feel I'm growing up It's like a drug It's like a drug Oh promise me oh promise me You'll save the one last dance for me Oh promise me oh promise me You'll save the one last dance for me Oh promise me oh promise me You'll save the one last dance for me Oh vanity oh vanity You'll save the one last dance for me Oh promise me oh promise me You'll save the one last dance for me Oh promise me oh promise me You'll save the one last dance for me
