It sickens me to see the photograph in front of me
  Carnation couloured pink stand aside and take a drink
  Night club another scene 31st its halloween
  Slave to each new trend up town junkies push again
  The lovers and the wannabe's they don't know how
  The radio's and the tv they don't know how
  The newspaper story reads they don't know how
  Cheap girl magazine they don't know how
  Stand aside and cry never wonder why
  Ask themselves why the river has dried
  Laughter after three shaped up to be free
  Number one the most missed chart
  Must have broke a thousand hearts
  Parallel with the scene tarnished star evergreen
  Lived life disguised
  The lovers and the wannabe's they don't know how
  The radio's and the tv they don't know how
  The newspaper story reads they don't know how
  Cheap girl magazine they don't know how
  Stand around and cry and never wonder why
  Ask themselves why the river has dried
  Hoo hoo hoo hoo
  Hoo hoo hoo hoo
  Hoo hoo hoo hoo
