lyrics

tiny little dancer
her pointy shoes barely touch the ground
she keeps moving faster
as she slings sharp words around
how do she move so quickly
without that razorwire footwork
slicing up the linoleum
she's mighty proud of the shadow that she cuts
as the wind begins to howl (the wind begins)

walk away, walk away
she keeps walk, walk, walking away
she keeps walking
she don't look back at me

the lies are all around her
and she's all about telling you what she wants
you to do and when she wants you
to begin doing it
the gaps are getting wider
as she shuffles herself
back and forth from me to you
she don't have to worry
about that funny little thing called survival of the fittest
she's a 'Crombie zombie, she's dancing with the beast
as the wind begins to howl (the wind begins)

walk away, walk away
she keeps walk, walk, walking away
she keeps walking
she don't look back at me
in those shoes

(nirvana)
talking so fast to appear so happy here
(nirvana)
fanciest footwork all on the major stage
i almost saw you cry. just the hint
of a tear at the corner of your/my eye
(nirvana)
dancing around but you can't get through it

and you think that you know what's happening here
you can't deny, that ever since we were seventeen
we all knew it was worth every minute of our lives
(nirvana)
dancing around in the One True Movement
in those shoes
