Blue yster Cult — Dance On Stilts

[Verse 1: Donald Roeser] On the outside I'm in the high rise Headin' for a meeting Shining up my greeting See me in a white suit With a mirror tie [Chorus: Donald Roeser] And you (you-you-you) Elevate me You throw off the shame And you Dance on stilts with me [Verse 2: Donald Roeser] And on the inside I'm on my knees Crawling an aching mile, living on the Bowery Too sick to stand, to try to understand [Chorus: Donald Roeser] But you (you-you-you) Elevate me You lift me high, just high enough to see You (you-you-you) Elevate me You throw off the shame And you dance on stilts with me You throw off the shame And you dance on stilts with me [Verse 3: Donald Roeser] And no one suspects a thing They're all hiding just the same They ache for an outbound train And the wheels stopped turning in their brains [Chorus: Donald Roeser] And you (you-you-you) Elevate me You lift me high, just high enough to see You (you-you-you) Elevate me You throw off the shame And you dance on stilts with me You throw off the shame And you dance on stilts with me [Outro: Donald Roeser] (You...) elevate me (You...) elevate me (You...) elevate me C'mon baby, dance on stilts, dance on stilts with me (You...) elevate me (You...) elevate me
