High life Sing me a sweet song You used To think I was grand Downtown Chelsea and Soho I held The world in my hand I flew The Concorde to Paris Sniffed lines Of cocaine for free Champagne And mangoes for breakfast Warm nights And dawns by the sea OD'ed In the afternoon With her diamonds and pearls And a burnt spoon Now I'm A little bit older And I'm In need of a friend I've got Some pills and some liquor And soon I'll see you again OD'ed... etc. Honey What you gonna do When your beauty and youth Are behind you?
