The Last Dinner Party - 'Knocking at the Sky' lyrics:

Standing on the windowsill
Walking in your sleep
On the streets sirens sang
For you to take the leap

Thought that you were Icarus
Or at least that you were Greek
To the people down below
You’re just another freak

I would give my eyes away just to be the light
I’d burn off my fingerprints, start a brand new life
I would trade my innocence, choke upon my pride
You can find me every night
Knocking at the sky

Singing La La La La
Singing la La La La
Singing la La La La
Singing la La La La

Women wept when you were gone
Lay naked on the shore
A hero’s death in chiffon trenches
Who could ask for more?

And you would seek the mountains
Or the moon where snow is born
To gaze upon the cobra
Or Athena in soft core

I would give my eyes away just to be the light
I’d burn off my fingerprints, start a brand new life
I would trade my innocence, choke upon my pride
You can find me every night
Knocking at the sky

Singing La La La La
Singing la La La La
Singing la La La La
Singing la La La La

[spoken]
Honey, there’s a seven-car-pile-up
On the highway to my heart
But if I give you the green light
You promise you’ll never come back
You promise?

Oh, I rue the day I ever left this place
I gave my headshots in to Trashy’s Lingerie
I want my MTV, my grass and my valet
It never rains on me
Oh god I love LA!

La la la la la
La la la la la
(Repeat)
