Piggy in the Mirror (studio demo) Songtext
von The Cure

Shapes in the drink like Christ
Cracks in the pale blue wall
I′m walking slowly and quickly but always away
I'm twisting twisting to the floor

Flowers in your mouth and the same dry song
The routine from laughter land
Sixteen white legs and a row of teeth
I watch you in secrecy

You′re dying for the hope is gone
From here we go nowhere again
Oh I'm trapped in my face and I'm changing too much
I can′t climb out the way I fell in, oh

Jump with me for that old forgotten dance
The midnight sun will burn you up
And your life is cold, your life is hard
Your life is too much for words


These occasions are such a relief
Another point, another view to send
Hey hey hey, we start to talk and it′s, and it's all so safe
Oh I feed you in my dreams

Footsteps on a wire, high above my head
The stain reveals my real intention
I′m the waiting beast, I'm the twisted nerve
As I dance, dance back to the body in my bed
As I dance, dance back to the body in my bed, to the body in my bed

Look at the piggy, piggy in the mirror
At the piggy, piggy in the mirror
At the piggy, piggy in the mirror
At the piggy, piggy in the mirror

Look at the piggy in the, at the piggy, piggy in the mirror
Oh look at the piggy in the mirror
Oh look at the piggy in the mirror
Oh look at the piggy in the mirror, oh oh oh
