Peter Gabriel - Quiet Steam Lyrics
Released as b-side of digging in the dirt single, 1992.Stand backStand backWhat are those dogs doing, sniffing at my feetTheyre onto something, pickin up, pickin upThis heatThis heatGive me steamHow you feel can make it realGet a life with this dreamers dreamOh, give me steamReal as anything you seeGet a life in this dreamers dreamYou know your culture from your trashYou know your plastic from your cashWhen I lose sight of the trackYou know the way backBut I know youYou know your stripper from your paintYou know your sinner from your saintWhenever heavens doors are shutYou get them open, butI know youGive me steamAnd how you feel can make it realGet a life in this dreamers dreamOh, give me steamReal as anything you seeGet a life in this dreamers dreamYou know your green from your redYou know the quick from the deadSo much better than the restYou think youve been blessedBut I know youYou know your ladder from your snakeYou know the throttle from the brakeYou know your straight line from the curveYouve got a lot of nerveBut I know youGive me steamAnd how you feel can make it realGet a life in this dreamers dreamOh, give me steamReal as any place youve beenGet a life with this dreamers dreamOh yeah, I need steamFeel your steam around meTurning up the heatI start to dream aloudYou move my hands and feetWont you step into this cloudOf steamThis steamGive me steamHow you feel can make it realReal as anything youve seenGet a life with this dreamers dreamGive me steamHow you feel can make it so realGet a life in this dreamers dreamHelp me yeahComin aliveIn your steamComin aliveIn your steamComin alive
