Look at that over there
It's the Moon in the sky
Cutting holes for my footsteps in the night

Was an old dancing bear
Now he's shot through the side
And nobody surrounds him when he dies
He was living on the edge of a knife

She said come on down to see me more than
Just once in a while
Come on down
And never tell your wife

It's the baddest part of town
You can't help but rattle down
When you're living on the edge of a knife

Oh, the light and then it fades
It blinds us all to yesterday
It blows the kisses
From my face

Look at that over there
It's your old man in a chair
With a whiskey and cigarette carefully lights

Was an old dancing bear
Now he's shot through the side
And nobody surrounds him when he dies
He was living on the edge of a knife

Oh, the light and then it fades
It blinds us all to yesterday
It blows the kisses
From my face

Oh, the light and then it fades
It blinds us all to yesterday
It blows the kisses
From my face

Oh, the light and then it fades
It blinds us all to yesterday
It blows the kisses
From my face
