The Colony Lyrics by Tim Arnold

Secrets of Soho

0

Taking the high life as far as it goes
All the way to a natural conclusion
Packing the good times into minutes that split
At the seams, you can sustain the illusion

Broken promises keep you hooked
Expectations lying dead on a shelf
A high, high hope won’t help you cope
You can listen to a prophet but you won’t hear till you tell yourself

Life don’t get better than The Colony
Up and down
Life don’t get better than this
Round and round

Yeah J-walking’s a dream
But don’t get hit by the stream
The sweetest sweet is gonna swallow you whole
And don’t get used to the room
In your new hot air balloon
You may land and find you’re home
Bitter home

Champagne bubbling through your veins
But your bubble just might pop if you shout to loud
Just watch it, You can’t know enough
It don’t matter if you’re flush
It don’t matter if you’re down and out

Life don’t get better than The Colony
Up and down
Life don’t get better than this
Round and round
