Peter Gabriel - Steam Lyrics
Stand back!said stand back!What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet?Theyre on to something, picking upPicking up this heat, this heat{chorus 1:}Give me steamAnd how you feel can make it realReal as anything youve seenGet a life with the 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 kick them open, butI know you{chorus 2:}Give me steamAnd how you feel can make it realReal as any place youve beenGet a life with the dreamers dreamStand back!said stand back!Cant you see Ive lost control? Im getting indiscreetYoure moving in so close til Im picking upPicking up this heat, this heat[chorus 1]You 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 leather from your snakeYou know the throttle from the brakeYou know your straight line from a curveYouve got a lot of nerveBut I know you[chorus 2]Everybody nosediveHold your breath, count to fiveBackslap, *****ytrapCover it up in bubblewrapRoom shake, earthquakeFind a way to stay awakeIts gonna blow, its gonna breakThis is more than I can takeOh yeah, I need steamFeel the steam around meAh youre turning up the heatWhen I start to dream aloudtil youre movin hands and feetWont you step into this cloud of steamThis steam[chorus 1]Help me yeahReady to steam out the log jamStir crazy from the freezer to the boilWaters bubbling, its b..b..b..bubblingBubbling bubbling bubbling bubblingLife is coming to the boilGimme steam, ladyGimme the steam around me nowOn a high, coming alivesaid gimme some steam!
