Peter Gabriel - Daddy Long Legs lyrics

[Peter Gabriel - Daddy Long Legs lyrics]

In the last days of sun
Her Daddy Long Legs flew
All was left was nearily done
He felt as good as new
But to him was a still a shame
That he soon would disappear
Without a claim to pay that he believes
And so he drifted on the
Whe he was sucked into the
Ventilator of a cinema
And there upon the silver screen
A dancing man appeared it had white tails
And everybody cheered
Then up into the beam of light
He Daddy Long Legs flew
And on the silver screen he shadowed
Stars and he danced too
Daddy Long Legs, Daddy Long Legs
2 people with feet
Daddy Long legs, Daddy Long Legs
2 people with feet
As the man with tail danced each step
Daddy Long Legs danced as well
Until somebody swatted him
And to the ground he fell
He said: what do I care?
I am the only Daddy Long Legs
Who has danced with friends
Daddy Long Legs, Daddy Long Legs
Daddy Long Legs
Daddy Long Legs, 2 people like feet
Daddy Long Legs, Daddy Long Legs
Daddy Long Legs, 2 people like feet
