Lyrics

[00:06.16] Throttling hurtling just going going
[00:11.24] And hurting going
[00:14.06] But it’s gone it’s going
[00:16.82] And not knowing where in the ground or in the air
[00:22.48] A golden stare whatever
[00:26.70]
[00:28.08] It’s going
[00:31.36]
[00:33.86] I stop by the lake of strangled crane
[00:39.22] It was the color of copper
[00:41.90] I saw the crane operator
[00:44.78] Heard the operator swallow
[00:47.54] Saying it looks like rain
[00:51.64]
[00:53.14] And I had the operation because steady was a doctor
[00:58.78] And I was in pain
[01:02.09]
[01:10.22] Freedom or whatever
[01:12.63] Whatever you call it
[01:15.52] It’s a stairway or a slow ride
[01:18.14] It’s reality or a land slide
[01:20.94] I heard the bartender died
[01:23.65] Of a broken heart
[01:26.61] And a shattered pelvis
[01:29.36] He was buried in Kansas
[01:32.18] It was part of a promotion
[01:34.88] They were trying to undermine
[01:37.63] The confidence of the tumor
[01:40.41] The confidence of the tumor
[01:43.16] The confidence of the tumor
[01:46.05] The confidence of the tumor
[01:48.73] The confidence
[01:50.30]
[01:54.55] I saw a beautiful drummer
[01:57.19] Get the whip of a spider
[02:00.10] Well I wished I could’ve saved her
[02:02.59] I saw a little boy in serious danger
[02:08.47] Of getting old
[02:11.28] He was strapped sitting shotgun
[02:15.93]
[02:16.86] In a cutlass cruiser cruiser
[02:23.62]
[02:27.98] Well I’m on the street
[02:30.74] And some say it ain’t my year
[02:33.87] I hear the little voice of love love love love love
[02:37.17] Get my chance
[02:37.60]
[02:39.09] I fear the hunger coming fast
[02:41.08] Part of the world like mad
[02:42.90]
[02:43.42]
[02:51.93] And I don’t keep them all ended up all better
[02:54.62] Slapped some kind of sense in this
[02:57.56] That passes between us
[03:00.00] But that someone else said
[03:02.71] But that someone else’s
[03:05.58] But that someone else said
[03:08.33]
[03:11.09] I last saw you Franking walking that Hampshire due
[03:16.93] Would’ve shot 5000 feet under the sky
[03:19.80] We’ll work it out too
[03:22.40] I bet you’ll express rocking or whatever
[03:27.99] Feel so far away
[03:31.01]
[03:33.51] I got my old typewriter right out
[03:39.16] I got the last stock filing and they forgot the word
[03:44.68] Well they burned my trailer
[03:47.39] And they’re on my tail
[03:50.26]
[03:56.61] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
[04:00.35] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
[04:04.53] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
[04:08.84] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
[04:12.98] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
[04:17.22] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
[04:21.32] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
[04:25.56] I walk Frankie I walk Frankie I walk Frankie
