text: When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights
  The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
  Prima Donna lord you really should have been there
  Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
  And its one more beer and I dont hear you anymore
  Weve all gone crazy lately
  My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
  And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
  You almost had your hooks in me, didnt you dear?
  You nearly had me roped and tied
  Altar-bound, hypnotized
  Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
  Youre a butterfly
  And butterflies are free to fly
  Fly away, high away, bye bye
  I never realized the passing hours of evening showers
  A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
  Im strangled by your haunted social scene
  Just a pawn outplayed by a dominating queen
  Its four oclock in the morning
  Damn it, listen to me good
  Im sleeping with myself tonight
  Saved in time, thank God my musics still alive
  And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
  You almost had your hooks in me, didnt you dear?
  You nearly had me roped and tied
  Altar-bound, hypnotized
  Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
  Youre a butterfly
  And butterflies are free to fly
  Fly away, high away, bye bye
  And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river
  Clinging to your stocks and bonds
  Paying your H.P. demands forever
  Theyre coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  So save your strength and run the field you play alone
  And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
  You almost had your hooks in me, didnt you dear?
  You nearly had me roped and tied
  Altar-bound, hypnotized
  Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
  Youre a butterfly
  And butterflies are free to fly
  Fly away, high away, bye bye
  Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved my life tonight
  Someone saved, someone saved, someone saved my life tonight
