Black Skies (The Cable-Assisted Flying Shaft)

[Verse 1] Down that road There's a man who's lived his whole life inside a rubber shoe He doesn't know what to do And young girls spend their life calling him outside with a bag of coins He doesn't know what to do When the sun shines like buttercup he laces up his tiny home He makes for a new life in the city [Hook] Forgetting the black skies Open your heart, choice of your art (x2) (harmonizing) [Verse 2] Oh and I, I waste So much time signing dotted lines in the bank each day Oh yes I do, silly me And I see young men waste their youth acting all uncouth in the back of the bar Somewhere deep down, in the city [Hook] [Bridge] And when the policeman comes for him I hope he's got his piece of paper So he can prove that he is who he is He's alive and nobody can say different It'd be a shame if you were a no one And you had to be sent back to nowhere To nowhere, to nowhere! [Outro] (harmonizing) For I was And I was
