The Standing Still Lyrics - Chumbawamba

Sacrifice 

Once upon a time 

Days of wine and roses and smug suburban swine 

Same old songs, same old cabaret 

A fairytale in Notting Hill 

Take your partners for the standing still 

Once upon a time 

Not so happy ending for the Mersey and the Tyne 

Who said the story had to end this way? 

A fairytale on Beeston Hill 

Take your partners for the standing still 

Stupid 

Stupid 

Stupid 

...
