When I was a little child 
 What you'd call [bad word] 
 Find me with a latch and key 
 Crawling in the dirt 

 There's a problem just for me 
 I have a thousand worlds to see 
 Always one [bad word] wild 
 and dressing up to be like You 

 Oh Vanity, Oh Vanity 
 Will keep me from insanity 
 This heart of mine would rather die 
 Than live a life of humanity 

 (Keyboard Solo) 

 And now I'm all grown up to be 
 paranoid schizophenic 
 My friends are all like me and You 
 I cannot tell em what to do 

 There's another world to see 
 Lie down with dogs and you'll get fleas 
 When Paris gave her hand to me 
 It felt like an eternity 

 Now as I feel I'm growing up 
 It's like a [bad word] 
 It's like a [bad word] 

 Oh promise me Oh promise me 
 You'll save the one last dance for me 

 Oh promise me Oh promise me 
 You'll save the one last dance for me 

 Oh promise me Oh promise me 
 You'll save the one last dance for me 

 Oh Vanity Oh Vanity 
 You'll save the one last dance for me 

 (Keyboard Solo) 

 Oh promise me Oh promise me 
 You'll save the one last dance for me 

 Oh promise me Oh promise me 
 You'll save the one last dance for me
