Van Morrison – I Paid The Price lyrics
See notes below

Well I'm sick and tired
Of your alibis,
And your indiscreet lies
Just wont get you by,
Over and over and over and over again.

And your family,
Your forced superiority,
Your azure delusions of grandeur,
Are gonna cut you free,
Over and over and over and over again.

Youre as cold as ice.
Ahh, youre not miss nice,
And I paid the price.

Ahh, you can count me out.
Oh, without a doubt,
I paid the price.

And up and down, round, round you go,
But you know one monkey
Don't stop no show.

Its plain to see
Youre in need of help,
But I just can't go on
And whip myself
Over and over and over, over again.

Ahh, you can count me out.
Ahh, without a doubt,
You know, I paid the price.
Ahh, youre not miss nice.
Youre as cold as ice,
And I paid the price.
Yes I did.
You know I did.

And I just wanna know
Whos your sponsor.
I just wanna know, oh,
I just a-wanna know, oh,
I just a-wanna know, oh,
Whos your angel.

{backup singers} [i paid the price.]
Sing the song.
[i paid the price.]
[i paid the price.]
[i paid the price.]
And don't discriminate your angel.
[i paid the price.]
And don't discriminate your sponsor.
[i paid the price.]
And be good to your angel.
[i paid the price.]
Bow down to your angel.
[i paid the price.]
Hey, hey!!
[i paid the price.]
Don't discriminate your angel.
[i paid the price.]
And don't discriminate your angel.
[i paid the price.]
Don't discriminate your angel.
[i paid the price.]
Don't discriminate your sponsor.
[i paid the price.]
Bow down to your angel.
[i paid the price.]
Bow down to your angel.
[i paid the price.]
Bow down to your angel.
[i paid the price.]
Uhh, be good!
[i paid the price.]
Be good to your angel.
[i paid the price.]
I tried for to blow it. (??)
[i paid the price.]
I tried for to blow it (??), one more time.
[i paid the price.]
I tried for to blow it (??), one more time.
[i paid the price.]
If you blow it one more time, I say,
[i paid the price.]
Oh, youre as
Cold as ice,
And youre not miss nice,
And I've definitely
Paid the price.
