The Contortionist

I used to be a contortionist
 Doing that and doing this
 Swallowing rings and swords and things
 Life was bent and I was twisted
 Hanging in the playgrounds of the rich
 Which is what and what is which
 Time gone by still got the itch
 Can't stop the music, Can't stop the music...
 Doo doo doo doo doo doo...
 I used to be a contortionist
 Now I know what it really means
 Contortion or distortionist
 Do anything to be part of the scene
 Listen to the music I adore
 Begging the bartender for one more
 Is this the season to explore
 Is this the reason, the reason, the reason for
 Everybody needs somebody to love, to love
 Oh now now now
 Everybody needs somebody to love, to love
 Doo doo doo doo doo doo...
 I used to be a contortionist
 High up there in the darkest cloud
 Almost like I didn't exist
 Twist of lime in a drunken crowd
 Innocent and running wild
 Cool a fool and juvenile
 Don't ever change your style
 So alive with your Coney Island smile
 Doo doo doo doo doo doo...
