Lyrics She Sells - Roxy Music

She Sells

And I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
To keep you off my mind
And I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
To keep you off my mind
(And she gotta stay)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she always stays)
High all the time
(And she gotta stay)
High all the time
(To keep you from her mind)
To keep you off my mind
She staying high, almost all the time
Another party almost every night
High heels and make up
Every week she’s on another flight
«Goes around always comes around»
That’s her own life motto, «Sunday California»
Monday in Chicago
But it’s cool, I’ll see her soon, loving all my tunes
Beauty walking the streets, a beast inside my room
Can’t stay for long, need to write these songs
Work from night then back to dawn
Nothing’s right if the feelings wrong
So she’s gone by the break of dawn
A broken heart but a stronger mind
In that girl is what you’ll find
Staying high almost all the time
But kills it every single time, tipsy off a glass of wine
Lewy V shades, what she hides behind
Purse more deep than her state of mind
Life is just one hell of a ride
But life is what she hated, love was just a dream
Now she thinks she’s made it, travelling over seas
Can’t get me off her mind, she calls me all the time
I always hit decline and she’s always getting high like
Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain’t got no end
Oh, can’t go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain
Oh, Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain’t got no end
Oh, can’t go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain
You’re gone and I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she gotta stay)
And I gotta stay high all the time
To keep you from my mind
(To keep you from her mind)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she gotta stay)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she always stays)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she gotta stay)
To keep you from my mind, oh
(To keep you from her mind)
She’s chasing dreams, chasing time
Never gonna work a 9 to 5
Broken heart but stays alive
Model pics from time to time
But either way she flows it, walks around like she owns it
Bad chick and she knows it, mean face when she poses
Always bathing under the city lights, love drunk, can’t get it right
Different club almost every night, every morning another flight
With a broken heart, no use
Battle scars and tattoos, fake smiles and excuse
Hiding what she’s just afraid to lose
Love isn’t on her menu and it’s always on her plate
A side dish, she continues just in case it’s too late
She’s parking just to numb the pain
Maybe it’ll fade away, but feels it every single day
Since back in the month of May
She can’t go home alone
So she’s high and on the phone
Can’t stand being on her own
Always need someone to hold
Can’t get her off my mind
I call her all the time
She always hits decline
And I know she’s getting high like
Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain’t got no end
(And I know she’s getting high like)
Oh, can’t go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain
(And I know she’s getting high like)
Oh, Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain’t got no end
Oh, can’t go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain
You’re gone and I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
To keep you off my mind
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she gotta stay)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she always stays)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she gotta stay)
To keep you off my mind
(To keep you from her mind)
And I gotta stay high all the time
And I gotta stay high all the time
I gotta stay high all the time
To keep you off my mind
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she gotta stay)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she always stays)
And I gotta stay high all the time
(And she gotta stay)
To keep you off my mind
(To keep you from her mind)
