Hands Up To The Ceiling - Tracey Thorn

Here is the street and here is the door

Same as it was before

And up the stairs and on the wall

Is Doisneau’s 'Kiss' and Terry Hall

And Siouxsie Sioux and Edwyn too

And Bobby Dee in '63

And everything I knew was good

And like it was just understood

Now I need that feeling

I’m reaching for that feeling

Hands up to the ceiling

And the rain came down on a cold, gray town

And I showed myself to them

And I went underground

Then I closed my eyes

And something passed me by

I didn’t even try

And I don’t remember why

And now I need that feeling

I’m reaching for that feeling

Hands up to the ceiling

Hands up to the ceiling
