Lyrics
Sailing
You can keep your cars
and your fat cigars
all your pollution
I need a blood transfusion,
yeah
You can smoke your dope
fill hear head with soap
till your mind goes bang
in a traffic jam
I'm going sailing, sailing, sailing
You can take your pills
and your sidewalk thrills
your fourth dimension
you give me nervous tension
you hurt me all over.
I'm gonna take that train
in the high speed lane
down the optic fibers
through the ties that bind us.
I'm going sailing, sailing, sailing
