lyrics

Another morning dull and grey
Another night before today
Another burn on the Persian rug
And the mirror there on the floor

Another day at the job I hate
Another day I sit and wait
To be upon my Persian rug
With the mirror there on the floor.

Hey hey hey
I know my soul will have to pay
Hey hey hey
Before the devil gets his way
Hey hey hey
I know my soul will have to pay
Hey hey hey
Until then I will fly away, fly away, fly away

On my magic carpet ride
I flew so high I touched the sky
I spoke with angels at the gate
Of the mirror there on the floor

They told me something had to give
If I truly want to live
I caught a glimpse of who I've become
In the mirror there on the floor.

Hey hey hey....

Another morning dull and grey
Another night before today
The Persian rug has lost its charm
And the mirror's not on the floor

The magic box's lid is shut
The credit card has been cut up
The final fiver has been spent
And the mirrors back on the wall

Hey hey hey...
