I've flown the house of freezing, the house of freezing steel
|
And though my body's back I know it can't be real
|
'Cause I've been on that house without a guiding wheel
|
The house of freezing steel
|
Oh where's it going, picked me up at seven
|
When my eyes were weak from the light of the morning
|
Oh sister won't you tell me what a man might want to know
|
This madness is fine, yes if you're mad at the time
|
Back on the house of freezing, the house of freezing steel
|
The tied my body up, I'm forced to eat my meal
|
A cold plate of lamb and cold potatoes too
|
Now what's a soul to do
|
Oh Lord above, brother won't you tell me
|
Is this a eucharistic dove
|
'Cause I've been waiting for the right one to appear
|
But I've seen it in your face, and baby this ain't the place
|
Up on the house of freezing, the house of freezing steel.
|
I made my mind up then to get me to the wheel
|
I made the cabin door, the pilot turned around
|
He said we're Venus bound
|
Oh please take me home
|
After all I'm only human and the Earth is where I belong
|
I must have looked pitiful to this freak without a face
|
'Cause as he touched my head I saw myself back in bed
|
I've flown the house of freezing, the house of freezing steel
|
And though my body's back I know it can't be real
|
'Cause I've been on that house without a guiding wheel
|
The house of freezing steel
|
