"In Trance"
By Michael Knapp

The image brings down the boys
but she wants to be sure
The image brings down the boys
tonight

In trance
the 'Dance'
boys bring her dead romance

Curtains, sheets and all those lies
she's seen it all before
Jump into bed and don't be shy
tonight

In trance
the 'Dance'
boys bring her dead romance

Isolated again but not for long
she'll just amuse herself
These boys are all her playthings
tonight

In trance
the 'Dance'
boys bring her dead romance
