Trans-Island Skyway



Steely Dan - Trans-Island Skyway - Текст песни

I was born yesterday 
When they brought my Kamakiri 
When they handed me the keys 
It's a steam-power 10 
The frame is out of Glasgow 
The tech is Balinese 
It's not a freeway bullet 
Or a bug with monster wheels 
It's a total biosphere 
The farm in the back 
Is hydroponic 
Good, fresh things 
Every day of the year 
Good, fresh things 
Every day of the year 

With all screens and functions 
In sync lock with Tripstar 
This cool rolling bubble 
Is all set to samba 
This route could be trouble 
(This route could be trouble) 

Chorus: 
Steamin' up 
That Trans-Island Skyway 
Tryin' to make that final deadline 
And if the lanes are clear 
We're gonna drive a little harder 
We'll be deep in the Zone by cryin' time 

Say, there's a wreck 
On the side of the road 
Lots of blood and broken glass 
The kid who was driving 
I know from somewhere 
Some kids just drive too fast 
Wait just a minute 
There's a beautiful survivor 
With dancer's legs and laughing eyes 
C'mon snakehips, it's all over now 
Strap in tight cause it's a long sweet ride 

Relax - put some sounds on 
I'll brew up some decaf 
C'mon kick off those heels ma'am 
Now breathe in and sigh out 
Let's get with the program 
(Let's talk about the good times) 

Chorus 

We reach the sprangle 
Just at dawn 
These little streets I used to know 
Is that my father 
Mowin' the lawn 
(C'mon daddy get in let's go) 
C'mon daddy get in let's go 
C'mon daddy get in let's go 
C'mon daddy get in let's go 
C'mon daddy get in let's go 
C'mon daddy get in let's go 
C'mon daddy get in let's go 

We pull into Five Zoos 
Past motels and drive-thrus 
That noon sun is blinding 
The tidepools are boiling 
Below plates are grinding 
(Let's talk about the good times) 

Chorus
