Bang Goes The Knighthood |
| Out of the station and through the arcade |
| Past the antique shops of Regent’s Parade |
| To an innocuous London address |
| A quick glance around and then down the wet steps |
| God only knows what keeps bringing me here |
| Gambling with everything that I hold dear |
| One careless word in establishment ears |
| And bang goes the knighthood, the wife and career |
| You make me feel |
| You make me feel something |
| And feeling something beats feeling nothing at all |
| And nothing at all is what I feel all the rest of the time |
| If someone sees |
| If someone hears something |
| I know it’s coming, the fear is making me ill |
| But then fear is part of the thrill |
| They taught me discipline at boarding school |
| The consequences of breaking the rules |
| They said ‘we're just being cruel to be kind' |
| As they beat me to within an inch of my life |
| So chain me, restrain me and teach me to kneel |
| Bind me and grind me beneath your high heels |
| Crack goes the whip, and if someone should tell |
| Bang goes the knighthood as-well |
