Pranchestonelle - The Bluetones

Darling accomplice

Remember when all in this world

Felt like ours to mistreat?

A carpet of fawning and flashbulbs

Spread under our feet

We rightfully took up our places

Among the elite

Our odyssey out of obscurity

Almost complete

And our fate was sealed

When we made that deal

And the words on the page

May as well have been written in blood

Darling accomplice

I never believed for a moment

It ever would end

That we’d be in this shining example

Of bucking the trend

When every breath was a gift

Every stranger a friend

And all that we both had to do

Was keep making pretend

And our fate was sealed

When we made that deal

And the words on the page

May as well have been written in blood

And they wrung our necks

While we cashed our cheques

Til reality brought us both

Crashing to Earth with a thud

And our fate was sealed

When we made that deal

And the words on the page

May as well have been written in blood

And they wrung our necks

While we cashed our cheques

Til reality brought us both

Crashing to Earth with a thud
