|
To live between a rock and a hard place |
|
In between time |
|
Cruising in prime time |
|
Soaking up the cathode rays |
|
To live between the wars in our time |
|
Living in real time |
|
Holding the good time |
|
Holding on to yesterdays |
|
Chorus |
|
You know how that rabbit feels |
|
Going under your speeding wheels |
|
Bright images flashing by |
|
Like windshields towards a fly |
|
Frozen in the fatal climb |
|
But the wheels of time |
|
Just pass you by |
|
Wheels can take you around |
|
Wheels can cut you down |
|
We can go from boom to bust |
|
From dreams to a bowl of dust |
|
We can fall from rockets' red glare |
|
Down to "brother can you spare..." |
|
Another war |
|
Another wasteland |
|
And another lost generation |
|
It slips between your hands like water |
|
This living in real time |
|
A dizzying lifetime |
|
Reeling by on celluloid |
|
Struck between the eyes |
|
By the big-time world |
|
Walking uneasy streets |
|
Hiding beneath the sheets |
|
Got to try and fill the void |
|
Chorus |
