The Dame stopped by The Paul O’Grady show for a chat and performed album track ‘Apartment’ written for her specifically by Rufus Wainwright. She came. saw and conquered which resulted in a very relaxed and funny episode of this show.
Paul O’Grady would have been the perfect host for her 80th. birthday show. To read an interesting article by Pete Price about this and his encounter with the Dame CLICK HERE
Lyrics Apartment:
I’m runnin’ away from Cinderella
Don’t want to go to Rapunzel’s hairdresser
Get me outta this
This, this here fairytale
According to me dreams are hell
I don’t wanna kiss that faggot (or freaky) froggy
Don’t want to fall in love
With the beast or the beauty
Get me outta this
This, this here fairy tale
According to me dreams are hell
All I want is an apartment
All I need is an apartment
If you’ve any leads on an apartment
Tell me please
Cause I’m runnin’ away from Cinderella
I don’t wanna fly on a dragon
God knows I’ve had so many drags
So many of them
Get me outta this
This, this here fairytale
According to me real life is swell
All I need is an apartment
All I want is an apartment
If you’ve any leads on an apartment
Tell me please
Cause I’m runnin’ away
I’m runnin’ away
I’m runnin’ away from Cinderella.
