Death Trip

(Copyright Steve Harley)

So now we??re on a death trip
listen to the blood drip
oozing from a curled lip
ever thought of dying slowly
ever thought of dying totally unholy

someone??s trying to fool us
maybe it??s your daughters
can you hear the walros
offering a sad solution
he??s calling out for teenage revolution
and ";can you think of one good reason to
remain?";

To you afficianados
fooling with bravado
to keep me on my guard-o
and cause a consciousness explosion
(it??s getting difficult to keepmy mind in
motion)

images of sunshine
please, to make the words rhyme
let me die in eight-time
let me write a tale to no-one
let me write a tale to make you think you??re
someone
and ";Can you think of one good reason to
remain?";

Interval
We??ll grow sweet Ipomoea
To make us feel much freer
Then take a pinch of Schemeland
And turn into Dreamland
";Softly, Lautrec,"; she whispered in awe
";Build me a picture of children at war";
