Lyrics of The standing still

Sacrifice

Once upon a time
Days of wine and roses and smug suburban swine
Same old songs, same old cabaret
A fairytale in notting hill
Take your partners for the standing still

Once upon a time
Not so happy ending for the mersey and the tyne
Who said the story had to end this way?
A fairytale on beeston hill
Take your partners for the standing still

Stupid
Stupid
Stupid
