Intro
Verse
For I am an engine and I'm
rolling on
the world is all bending and
breaking from me
(or:through endless revision to say what I mean)
for sweetness alone who flew out
through the window
and landed back home in a garden
of green
Instrumental
Chorus
you're riding alone in the back
of a steamer
and steaming yourself in the
warm shower spray
and water rolls on off the round
captains belly
who's talking to tigers from his
cafeteria tray
Instrumental
Outro Chorus
and your sweet babies cry for
the cool taste of milking
that milky delight that invited
us all
and if there's a taste in this
life more inviting
than wake up your windows and
watch as those sweet babies
crawl
awaaay yeah mmm mmm mmm dee dee
dee dee dee dee dee dee
