Trainwreck 1979

 

I was born on a highway in a trainwreck

With a heart that was beatin’ outta my chest

So now I follow it around the world, I can’t keep up

If I don’t get it soon I know I’ll bleed until I drop

 

‘Cause I want it all

I can’t get enough

‘Cause I want it all

I can’t get enough

 

There’s a darkness and a hollow on the highway

Every cross on the road side tells a story

So now I follow it around the world, I can’t keep up

The story never ends as long as we have blood and guts

 

‘Cause I want it all

I can’t get enough

‘Cause I want it all

I can’t get enough

Can’t get enough

I can’t get enough

 

It ran off the track, 11/79

While the immigrants slept, there wasn’t much time

The mayor came callin’ and got ’em outta bed

They packed up their families and headed up wind

 

A poison cloud, a flaming sky

200,000 people and no one died

And all before the pocket dial

Yeah

 

I keep searchin’ and searchin’

I keep searchin’ and searchin’

 

Now I’m stranded, tied on the tracks

There’s no hero, there’s no villain

There’s nobody I can blame, the story’s still the same

I’m never satisfied, it’s a problem with my brain

 

I keep searchin’ and searchin’

I keep searchin’ and searchin’

 

‘Cause I want it all

I can’t get enough

‘Cause I want it all

I can’t get enough

 

(Can’t get enough) I can’t get enough

(Can’t get enough) I can’t get enough

(Can’t get enough) I can’t get enough

(Can’t get enough) I can’t get enough
