[Verse 1] Don't wanna go On secondhand adventures Can't afford to loose that spring in my step You know what It's all we've got Ask your one-legged waiter
The final straw I couldn't really tell you Who is a passenger and who is a friend If we pack In the act Who's tears taste more salty
[Chorus] High and dry Deep and wide Crowded God forsaken Cruel eternal divine Paris can you break me
[Verse 2] Now is this home Or technicolor cardboard Let me tell you all about this town Your took me in For my sins Loved me like no other
I hear her sighs Are deeper than the river And when she smiles It runs dry Now it's time to get the tab That's a wrap Call me in the morning
[Chorus] High and dry Deep and wide Crowded God forsaken Cruel eternal divine Paris can you break me High and dry Deep and wide Crowded God forsaken Cruel eternal divine Paris you have made me
[Bridge] You couldn't tell I once was new in this town I saw the shadows move as I did my rounds These lonely summers always get me down
And then of course I could have shown you the sights If I only had it in me tonight I guess you're on your own
[Chorus] High and dry Deep and wide Crowded God forsaken Cruel eternal divine Paris can you break me High and dry Deep and wide Crowded God forsaken Cruel eternal divine Paris you have made me
