I've got my eyes fixed on your picture This finger's pressing you Would you shut up for a moment I need to see the future Seems it's looking dim I try to shake you off but still you cling I never wear your ring Green stains creeping down my finger Wasn't there a thing that I did that gave you pleasure? Wasn't there a thing that I did that made you laugh?
And the hangman shakes his head, tips the hourglass and counts Former wives, former lives line up, then denounce me
People it's my party, people it's my house It's me who makes the rules If you cannot stand the heat, leave your grudges in the hall It's me who makes the rules
I'm head of this table, all of you are mere projections If I gave you false impressions, then that's just the way I am What I say, what I think, are two entirely different things That's just the way I am
We should never say forever, even when it's what we feel It's what I feel, it's what I fear, it's what you hear Time stands still until tomorrow when I'm gone If you keep clinging on, could that be forever?
People it's my party, people it's my house It's me who makes the rules If you cannot stand the heat, leave your grudges in the hall It's me who makes the rules
We meet again my princess, let's get it right this time Let's make a toast... We could exorcise the ghosts...
