Sarah McLachlan
Tightrope Walker
As a lad I
Lay and pondered
How to get away
With murder
All of our lives
We have plotted
Our revenge now
Someone's done it

Trust to my lucky dice
My rusty pocket knife
High in the chandelier
Hanged for all to see
Who bagged the child catcher
Dragged him to his sleep

'H' for 'hatred'
Now the old man has plans
To make it
All of our lives
We have plotted
Our revenge now
Someone's done it

Trust to my lucky dice
My rusty pocket knife
High in the chandelier
Hanged for all to see
Who bagged the child catcher
Dragged him to his sleep
I'm overjoyed

The Eiffel Tower done climbed headlong dive
Niagara water pours on thin ice
See what'd I tell you folks
Wasn't I right?
We'll live to see them die

(Tightrope, oh)
(Tightrope, oh)
(Tightrope, oh)
(Tightrope)

The Eiffel Tower done climbed headlong dive
Niagara water pours on thin ice
See what'd I tell you folks
Wasn't I right?
We'll live to see them die

Child of the neighbour
Tightrope walker
Child of the nieghbour
Tightrope walker
Child of the neighbour
Tightrope walker
