Ella Fitzgerald
Down in the Depths
With a million neon rainbows burning below meAnd a million blazing taxis raising a roarHere I sit, above the townIn my pet-palliated gownDown in the depthsOf the ninetieth floorWhile the crowds in all the nightclubs punish the parquetAnd the bars are packed with couples calling for moreI'm deserted and depressedIn my regal-eagle nestDown in the depthsOf the ninetieth floorWhen the only one you wanted wants anotherWhat's the use of swank and cash in the bank galore?Why, even the janitor's wifeHas a perfectly good love lifeAnd here I am, facing tomorrowAlone in my sorrowDown in the depthsOf the ninetieth floor
