Erin Mckeown - An Innocent Fiction lyrics

Midnight confessions Of deputy Prussians Coloured my time in the Rhine Where a misplaced directive From a dirty connector I got out just in time Fleet of foot messengers Tapped me in Bucharest And paid for a train to Berlin Where a night club at midnight Was cleared out too quickly I made my face in the wings The palace ain't nothing Compared to this majesty Here I am dancin' For the president of Germany I opened up with a Rag and a one-step and Finished the bit with a freeze Then a touch of the shuffle and I closed with a soft-shoe I hit 'em with my best routine The palace ain't nothing Compared to this majesty Here I am dancin' for The president of Germany The orpheum never saw A bigger hit in two a day The national can't beat this state Oooooh, oooooh Don't fade out You're my only hope and it's running out The spotlight it shone on heavy artillery The silence was worse than the shot I'm just a dancer, an innocent fiction More like a dream than not Applause cascading from one set of fingertips You believe what you believe You believe what you believe You believe what you believe You believe what you believe Midnight confessions Of deputy Prussians I got out just in time
