Spread the word around
the rat is leaving town
the message is a song
the misery is gone
Once i had a dream
to sing before the queen
she didn't want to know
she wouldn't see the show
What a fright
i couldn't do it right
oh what a night
Mystic demons fly
all about the sk
with memories of a clown
the saddest show in town
When i was seventeen
me mother said to me
be careful what you touch
you shouldn't take so much
I blew my mind
she was so kind
i could have cried
In my mind
i had to fin
a kind of new way
of being oh so cool
like a blue blooded
well studded
english fool
Speak about the past
times are changing fast
once i was so weak
i couldn't even speak
Shaking put a curse
nothing could be worse
walking through the door
who could ask for more
Now i'm free
and i can see
that i am me
Spread the word around
the rat is leaving town
the message is a song
the misery is gone
Shaking out a curse
nothing could be worse
walking through the door
who could ask for more
Now i'm free
and i can see
that i am me
Please stay away
