The View - Tragic Magic lyrics
[The View - Tragic Magic lyrics]
The candyman's complaining he can't get
The blood off his hands
He can't tell the difference between
Friends and powder fans
Hooked on what they're given
So they just won't go away
Gave them his umbrella
Took it back on a rainy day
Char De Ville's complaining
'bout the things we shrug wae'
Realised it matters
When your heart gets stolen away
Not the things he didn't do
The things he didn't say
Hanging on that look he gave her
Stay in touch now
Each of them complaining about the situation
That they both know oh so well
Now each of them complaining
'bout his chosen vocation
But, I'm not dealing with scum like you
And it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
The dealer remembers more than the man
And not a lot of people have
The problems that they do
Offload all your troubles they'll
Come running back to you
This life is a puddle but
The goodness does occur
So steal another shaving of the sultan's cook
Keep on complaining
Move into the sadness lane
Come around and sing with me
Make everyone ecstatic using
The chromatic scale
That no-one sings round here
And it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
Remember you're no more than the man
The dealer remembers more than the man
More than the man
And you know I'd ask you
But I already know the answer
You'll say, "no" and call me a chancer
And you know I'd ask you
But I know what you'll say
You don't take no prisoners with scum like me
And it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Oh it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
The dealer remembers more than the man
Remember you're no more than the man
No more than the man
With the tragic magic
You'll never feel fantastic
The blood off his hands
He can't tell the difference between
Friends and powder fans
Hooked on what they're given
So they just won't go away
Gave them his umbrella
Took it back on a rainy day
Char De Ville's complaining
'bout the things we shrug wae'
Realised it matters
When your heart gets stolen away
Not the things he didn't do
The things he didn't say
Hanging on that look he gave her
Stay in touch now
Each of them complaining about the situation
That they both know oh so well
Now each of them complaining
'bout his chosen vocation
But, I'm not dealing with scum like you
And it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
The dealer remembers more than the man
And not a lot of people have
The problems that they do
Offload all your troubles they'll
Come running back to you
This life is a puddle but
The goodness does occur
So steal another shaving of the sultan's cook
Keep on complaining
Move into the sadness lane
Come around and sing with me
Make everyone ecstatic using
The chromatic scale
That no-one sings round here
And it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
Remember you're no more than the man
The dealer remembers more than the man
More than the man
And you know I'd ask you
But I already know the answer
You'll say, "no" and call me a chancer
And you know I'd ask you
But I know what you'll say
You don't take no prisoners with scum like me
And it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Oh it's just a case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
When you can't remember feeling fantastic
Just another case of tragic magic
The dealer remembers more than the man
Remember you're no more than the man
No more than the man
With the tragic magic
You'll never feel fantastic
