Lightning Bolt

歌詞

This is our only chance For certain happenstance Some scrappy happiness It's time to hit the bricks Beyond the palisades Your solo record plays A lonely pine tree sways Somewhere out in the sticks I lose myself out here I never see things clear I do not care my dear About anything but you I'll thank my lucky stars I'll hang from monkey bars I'll drive in rusty cars To do the things I do It's not your fault This life's a lightning bolt Corrective surgery Charge me with perjury Get down on bended knee I'll lie between my teeth I will not sell you out No matter what they shout I do not have a doubt That beauty loves the beat I don't know where I've been I don't know anything I'm sure of one small thing A kettle's gonna boil Travel through space and time I'd like a vodka lime A twist of the sublime One small immortal coil It's no one's fault My life's a lightning bolt We look into the sky We see electric shock And in the darkest night We pick the toughest lock The place we were before We made the memory One thing I know for sure We need uncertainty The sky so bright and pure Let me get particular Pushing papers, pushing drugs by chance Cutting corners, cutting rugs at the dance Killing time, I'm killing it right now I'm getting going, getting lit somehow 35, I need a few more years But I only need a few more tears 36, I'm only getting started What does become of the broken hearted? People swaying on a summer night Raging on against the dying light I was sick but I've been cured Gentlemen, ladies: rest assured It's not your fault This life's a lightning bolt Don't let it bring you down You get one go around Come walk a while with me We'll stand beneath a tree Baby, that's all she wrote My life's a lightning bolt All that we get for free is electricity
