I can feel this power awake This punch drunk heart just will not break And I will jump or crawl or creep No difference high or steep And I can feel the black lies fly They're in my sleep, they're in my eyes I hate this head these feet and hands I'm tired of being a man Load me up with something to give me Chinese eyes Beneath the crazy paving I fear the next surprise Now I can't wait or hesitate Just one slip and it's too late And I won't make that old mistake Cause you can't fool with fate And I will push this punch drunk heart Down many roads until we part This punch drunk heart just will not break Not while this power's awake Load me up with something to give me Chinese eyes Beneath the crazy paving I fear the next surprise Let's go to the basement, but careful on the stair For one eternal instant the web of fate may tear
