S. Colvin - J. Leventhal
|
|
China gets broken
|
And it will never be the same
|
Boats on the ocean
|
Find their way back again
|
I am weaving
|
Like a drunkard
|
Like a balloon up in the air
|
I am needing a puncture and someone
|
To point me somewhere
|
I'm gonna keep my head on straight
|
I just hope it's not too late
|
Open up the gate I go straight on, steady on
|
|
|
Steady on!
|
|
I was feeling imploded
|
A wooden smile, a wooden heart
|
The things exploded
|
Like rockets in the dark
|
Now I'm pulling out splinters
|
And I'm off to hibernate somewhere
|
For the nuclear winter
|
Of another love affair
|
|
|
"Cause he seemed like a miracle
|
I ate it up like cereal
|
But it was something like shrapnel
|
|
|
Steady On!
|
|
It's like ten miles of a two-lane
|
On a South Dakota wheat plain
|
In the middle of a hard rain
|
A slow boat or a fast train
|
I am gonna keep my head on straight
|
I'm gonna keep my head on straight
|
|
|
Steady on!
|
