up on the catwalk
Singer: simple minds
up on the catwalk
a big wheel is spinning
and dollars to deutchmarks
and pennies from heaven
and up on the catwalk
there's one hundred million
with letters from thousands that say ``just who are you?''
there's one thousand names that can spring up in my mind
but you'd call it blackmail and that's just not my kind
and up on the catwalk
up on the catwalk
and i don't know why
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
up on the catwalk there's street politicians
that crawl in from broadway
say then who are you
and up on the catwalk there's one thousand postcards
from montevideo
say that i'll be home soon
get out of bombay and go up to brixton and look around
to see just what is missing
and up on the catwalk
girls call for mother and dream of their boyfriends
and i don't know why
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
tonight
under the crystal light
i'll tell you everything i need
tonight
under the crystal light
surrender everything to me
up on the catwalk
and you dress in waistcoats
and got brilliantino
and friends of kim philby
you float through the night time
like manna from heaven
but what
what do i know
and just what do i know
and up on the catwalk
in sweat that glistens
and i don't know why and i don't know why
i don't know why
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
i will be there
tonight
under the crystal light
i'll tell you everything i need
tonight
under the crystal light
surrender everything to me
angel angel angel angel
ah huh ah huh ah huh ah huh
one thousand names that spring up in my mind
one thousand names that spring up in my mind
like deodata
michaelangelo
robert de niro
so many others
natasia kinski and martin luther - there's room for others
away from me
up on the catwalk
up on the catwalk
up on the catwalk
i don't know why.
