Nitzer Ebb - Lightning Man Lyrics

It seems some story was told

but what is there to tell?

Well, some song had been sung

but none of it sings

so let's spell it out

a, b, and c.

Up and down from a is to z

you meant zed, you said zed



From nothing to something

and something for nothing.

From no one to someone

from someone to same one

same old thing.

The only way out

leads to no way back.

What can you do?



Easy

You shove it back where it came

Easy

You never let yourself down



So you got up

and you ran

and you run to get up.

Through chinatowns

to slip right down

soho's a town in every downtown.



Drinking friends

who've drunk in bars

whose drunken friends

in drinking bars, waiting

for the lightning man to strike.



Icing on your cake.

well if i knew you were coming

i'd cut you you a piece.



Baby come to daddy

baby come to daddy

baby come to daddy

daddy's come to baby

daddy's come to baby

come to daddy

baby

baby come to daddy





Easy

You shove it back where it came

Easy

You never let yourself down



You better be careful out there

You be careful out there

You better be careful out there

You be careful

You ain't gonna get far

You better be careful out there

You ain't gonna get far

You ain't gonna get far

You be careful out there

You ain't gonna get far

You ain't gonna get far

You be careful out there

You better be careful out there

We're gonna pluck you off

You better be careful out there

You ain't gonna get far

You ain't gonna get far

We're gonna pluck you off

We're gonna pluck you off

We're gonna pluck you off



Baby come to daddy

daddy's come to baby

daddy's come to baby

come to daddy

come to baby

baby come to daddy

daddy's come to baby

come to daddy



Easy

You shove it right back down

Easy

You never listen to this
