China gets broken and it will never be the same
Boats on the ocean find their way back again
I am weaving like a drunkard, like a balloon up in the air
I am needing a puncture and someone to point me somewhere

I'm gonna keep my head on straight up and steady on
I just hope it's not too late
Open up the gate I go straight up, steady on
Oh steady on, go steady on, steady on, steady on

I was feeling imploded, a wooden smile, a wooden heart
Then things exploded like rockets in the dark
Now I'm pulling out splinters and I'm off to hibernate somewhere
For the nuclear winter of another love affair

'Cause he seemed like a miracle, he was steady on
I ate it up like cereal now
But it was something like shrapnel, I know steady
Go steady on, steady on, steady on, oh oh oh, yeah

[Incomprehensible]

It's like ten miles of a two-lane, steady on
On a South Dakota wheat plain
In the middle of a hard rain
I go straight on a slow boat or a fast train

I am gonna keep my head on straight
I'm gonna keep my head on straight
I'm gonna keep my head on straight
Go steady on, steady on, steady on

I go steady on, steady on
Go steady on, steady on, steady on, yeah
