Fallen Angel Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All the fallen angels
Roostin' in this place
Count back the weeks on worried fingers
Virgin mother what's-her-face

[Chorus]
You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favorite shoes
And put your blues on cruise control

[Verse 2]
All the gelded mongrels
Bear their teeth for you
Drag your feathers 'cross the dance floor
Throw your shapes electric blue

[Chorus]
You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favorite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control

[Bridge]
Don't fall to pieces on me
Don't fall to pieces on me
[Chorus]
You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favorite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
