New Company Songtext
I can't believe he had the balls to jump into the barrel so soon after it cleared the falls
And if space is really the place you should read between the lines that you helped carve into this face
It's just a case of nerves, that's all
A sympathetic telepathic curveball
That was aimed right for my chest
And if you still believe your friends, I guess it's all been for the best
Oh, so soon
You jumped another rocket and thought you'd land up on the moon
Now you got some new company
And I got no right to say anything
You're a big girl now
Well, there's still that daily drone
I keep working out, thinking I'll get strong enough to just pick up the phone
And I can't rewind it in my mind again
So I took a walk down to the pier to watch the chinese fishermen
And what do you think I caught?
A silent disease that nobody knows I got
So much for your holding court alone
And I got this sinking feeling, this ain't the only thing you've blown
These skinny legs are just holding up
Your parade
These skinny legs, they'll bend and they'll bend and they'll bend and they'll bend but they ain't never ever gonna break
Oh, so soon
And if space is really the place you should read between the lines that you helped carve into this face
It's just a case of nerves, that's all
A sympathetic telepathic curveball
That was aimed right for my chest
And if you still believe your friends, I guess it's all been for the best
Oh, so soon
You jumped another rocket and thought you'd land up on the moon
Now you got some new company
And I got no right to say anything
You're a big girl now
Well, there's still that daily drone
I keep working out, thinking I'll get strong enough to just pick up the phone
And I can't rewind it in my mind again
So I took a walk down to the pier to watch the chinese fishermen
And what do you think I caught?
A silent disease that nobody knows I got
So much for your holding court alone
And I got this sinking feeling, this ain't the only thing you've blown
These skinny legs are just holding up
Your parade
These skinny legs, they'll bend and they'll bend and they'll bend and they'll bend but they ain't never ever gonna break
Oh, so soon
