Firewater - Some Strange Reaction Lyrics

Oh no, here we go again

It's time to spend the last lucky dollar

Can't you see it now: sleeping on the train

And singing that sad refrain

Oh.. You could have been a contender

By the look in their eyes

You can see that they despise you

But you know it doesn't much really matter

Because there's the train, there's the track

Don't say goodbye and don't look back

Because if you do

You know that you're going to shatter



You never took me where I wanted to go

You never told me what I wanted to know

You couldn't see what I was trying to show

It must have been some strange reaction

And you split me when I started to crack

And you forgot me when I went off the track

And you just put another knife in my back

It must have been some strange reaction



Must be some strange reaction of a chemical kind

When all your problems develop complications

Can't get to sleep when all the people on the street

Are just like insects crawling on a carcass



You were crawling when I wanted to fly

You were laughing when I wanted to cry

And where were you when when I wanted to die?

It must have been some strange reaction

I was cursing when you tried to pray

To an idol with feet of clay

You had a party but nobody came

It must have been some strange reaction



I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

It must have been some strange reaction.
