Flamingo

In the darkness of the night, I feel isolated
The rain is lashing onto my sorrow in the cherry blossom haze

The wizened city streets, they have no time for me
My nose is dripping, feeling dreary, I'm sneezing hopelessly

I can't even laugh at this cheap and lowly fight
The crimson ornament you wear.
Hated love enemy
I wanna touch the velvet tail of your eye
and that slight cold smile of yours

You're a flamingo
So vivid, you're a flamingo
Keep dancing
You're floating away with a smile, never to return
Leaving only sorrow and jealousy behind
Thanks as always
can you love me better next time

Feeling elated, thankful that I caught a glimpse of you
I'm blinded, I'm walking on thin air and my mind is cloudy

Trying to be someone new, singing a tune,
Saying something flighty, end up looking like a fool

I just want to hear that voice that I love
So I made some easy money, stolen after all by a bunch of cheap thieves
I don't care that it's only you, 
shining brightly on this ridiculous stage

It's a flamingo,
spine chillin', It's a flamingo
Smile coyly,
You're floating away, does this mean good-bye
Are you kidding me? Let's talk about this
Taking back your words, this is so f**kin' uncool

Beaten by the sleety train, nose running
My right hand gripping a stupid cat's toy
Can't fool anyone with a toy nowadays,
wandering forever in this love affair

King Of Hell I appeal you,
please judge her charms for me
A story of a drunk papier-mache doll,
playing this silly game till the day I die

You're a flamingo
So vivid, You're a flamingo
Keep dancing
You're floating away with a smile, never to return
Leaving only  jealousy behind
Thanks as always
can you love me better next time

In the darkness of the night, I feel isolated
The cherry blossom haze

The wizened city streets, they have no time for me
I'm sneezing hopelessly
