Intermission Lyrics - Ta Dah! - Scissor Sisters

When you're standing on the side of a hill 

Feeling like you didn't be done 

Here it comes, strawberry sponge 

Chasing away the sun 

Don't let those precious moments fool you 

Happiness is getting you down 

A rainbow never smiles or blinks 

It's just a candy colored frown 

You were going on at half-past seven 

Now it's going on a quarter 'til nine 

All the angels want to know 

Are you lost or treading water? 

And you're going on your fifteenth bender 

But you've only got a matter of time 

Yes we've all got seeds to sow 

Not everyone's got lambs to slaughter 

When the night wind starts to turn 

Into the ocean breeze 

And the dew drops sting and burn 

Like angry honey bees 

That is when you hear the song falling from the sky 

Happy yesterday to all 

We were born to die 

Sometimes you're filled with the notion 

The afterlife's a moment away 

You want to tell someone the way that you feel 

But then you ain't got nothing to say 

You fight for freedom from devotion 

A battle that will always begin 

With somebody giving you a piece of advice; 

By the way you're living in sin 

Now there's never gonna' be an intermission 

But there'll always be a closing night 

Never entertain those visions 

Lest you may have packed your baggages 

First impressions are cheap ambitions 

Sometimes are long goodbyes 

Truth so often to living dormant 

Good luck walks and bullshit flies 

When the headlights guide your way 

You know the place is right 

When the treetops sing and sway 

Don't go to sleep tonight 

That is when you see the sign 

Luminous and high: 

Tomorrow's not what it used to be 

We were born to die 

Happy yesterday to all 

We were born to die
