Lightning Man Lyrics
It seems some story was told
But what is there to tell?
Well, some song had been sung
But none of it singsSo let's spell it out
A, B, and C
Up and down from A is to Z
You meant zed, you said zedFrom nothing to something
And something for nothing
From no one to someone
From someone to sameSame old thing
The only way out
Leads to no way back
What can you do?Easy, you shove it back where it came
Easy, you never let yourself downSo you got up and you ran
And you run to get up through Chinatowns
To slip right down
Soho's a town in every downtownDrinking friends who've drunk in bars
Whose drunken friends in drinking bars
Waiting for the lightning man to strikeIcing on your cake
Well, if I knew you were comin'
I'd cut you a pieceBaby, come to daddy
Baby, come to daddy
Baby, come to daddyDaddy's come to baby
Daddy's come to baby
Come to daddy, baby
Baby, come to daddyEasy, you shove it back where it came
Easy, you never let yourself downYou better be careful out there
You be careful out there
You better be careful out there
You be carefulYou ain't gonna get far
You better be careful out there
You ain't gonna get far
You ain't gonna get farYou be careful out there
You ain't gonna get far
You ain't gonna get far
You be careful out thereYou better be careful out there
We're gonna pluck you off
You better be careful out there
You ain't gonna get farYou ain't gonna get far
We're gonna pluck you off
We're gonna pluck you off
We're gonna pluck you offBaby, come to daddy
Daddy's come to baby
Daddy's come to baby
Come to daddyCome to baby
Baby, come to daddy
Daddy's come to baby
Come to daddyEasy, you shove it right back down
Easy, you never listen to this
