[Verse 1]
First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walkin' in a straight line
[Verse 2]
You say you want to spend the winter in Firenze
You're so afraid to catch a dose of influenza
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walkin' in a straight line
[Chorus]
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
[Verse 3]
Now if I tell you that you suffer from delusions
You pay your analyst to reach the same conclusions
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walkin' in a straight line
[Chorus]
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Ow
[Verse 4]
First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walkin' in a straight line
[Chorus]
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
[Outro]
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
