Burning At Both Ends Lyrics - Nik Kershaw

What's the matter with your face? 

What's the matter with they way you talk? 

What you doing with that spoon? 

You should be eating with a knife and fork 

Take a look at your body 

Take a look at your state of play 

You've had your fun and now it's time to pay 

I'm doing O.K. 

Well look at me, I'm doing O.K. 

Good, cos' 

I'm burning at both ends 

Running on spare juice 

Living from line to line 

I'm burning at both ends 

Surviving on borrowed time 

Maybe it's me who's doing it wrong 

Maybe I'm falling behind 

Maybe I'd come to your party 

If I was the Hari Kari'ing kind 

Sooner or later it'll catch you up 

Sooner or later you'll see 

You may not be around to disagree 

Are you talking to me 

You couldn't be talking to me 

Good, cos' 

(Chorus)
