Lyrics to "Down In The Depths" (C. Porter)
With a million neon rainbows burning below me, And a million blazing taxis raising a roar, Here i sit, above the town, In my pet-palliated gown, Down in the depths On the ninetieth floor
While the crowds in all the nightclubs punish the parquet, And the bars are packed with couples calling for more, I'm deserted and depressed In my regal-eagle mess, Down in the depths On the ninetieth floor
When the only one you wanted wants another, What's the use of swank and cash in a bank galore? Why, even the janitor's wife Has a perfectly good love life, And here am i, facing tomorrow, Alone in my sorrow, Down in the depths On the ninetieth floor
(repeat)
Down in the depth On the ninetieth floor With a million neon rainbows burning below me

I´ve seen this clip several years ago on TV and since this I´ve searched for this song. An now I hab finally found it again! I still remembered the video clip exactly, although it was years ago that I have seen it..... Now I know the search was right! I´t just great - her voice, the song - everything!!
Porter's lyrics were always brilliant and VERY smart. It was so great to hear Lisa and all the other artists on Red Hot & Blue give their own twist to his work.
Lisa Stansfield...get your ass back under the spotlight this minute! Very few Brit girls have that peculiarly US quality...Sass !!! And you have it in spades!
OK. "Nest" does make more sense. And thinking of "pet" in that sense makes more sense as well, even though I never would've thought of it like that had no one told me.
