Secondary Waltz Lyrics by Mark Knopfler

Secondary Waltz Lyrics

    Well now the school christmas party is coming
    Ain't doing rugby no more
    Mcintyre teaching us waltzing
    Out on the gymnasium floor
    Nobody battered or bleeding
    Nobody's tattered and torn
    Mcintyre's dim, loud in the gym
    Well, we've only got a little (...)
    We've only got a little (...)

    And it's you, you, you're a disgrace
    Mcintyre tore us apart
    We dance with ourselves, when the (...) find their space
    Waltzing with fear in our hearts
    Waltzing with fear in our hearts,

    On the big final manoeuvre, all of our heads are a whirl
    Getting much closer to the deep thing
    This time we'll do it with girls
    In the arena the ladies are waiting
    A twelve year old girl for a bride
    The matches were fixed, somehow we mixed
    And the fat girl got left on the side
    The fat girl got left on the side.

    And it's you, you, you're a disgrace
    Mcintyre tore us apart
    We dance with ourselves, when the (...) find their space
    Waltzing with fear in our hearts
    Waltzing with fear in our hearts
    It's the secondary waltz

    Well you come to my right, and i am under the light
    See that my footwork is false
    Don't count me out, the start of the bow
    I'm just doing secondary waltz
    Doing secondary waltz
    And it's the secondary waltz
    Yeah, it's the secondary waltz
