Nazareth Lyrics

Album: 2XS

Preservation Lyrics

I'm preserving myself with make-up

Lookin' in the mirror

I'm preserving my life, I can take it

Shinin' in the spotlight

Preservation, lookin' in the mirror

Preservation, but they don't know that I'm scrapin' it all off

Every night

I'm reserving my rights, reputation

Livin' in a movie, it's keepin' me lookin' right

When the secret is out to the public

Seein' is believin', they still wanna be me at night

When the parts get shorter, the parties get harder

But that's alright

Preservation, lookin' in the mirror

Preservation, but they don't know that I'm scrapin' it off

Every night

They're linin' up to make their entrance

When the word's out I'm in town, they're not nice girls

But that's alright

They're lookin' so much better when the lights go down

But nice girls is just a frame of mind

Preservation, lookin' in the mirror

Preservation, but they don't know that I'm scrapin' it off

Every night
