Lift To Nowhere
(lyrics by Hickey, music by Gomez/Green/Hickey/Preusch)

in the sand, where the children dance
on the sandy coast, in a trance
but i see them walking towards the street
over the sands this crowd will meet

in the road, where the money flows
there's a drought, and i can't get out
but they see me walking to the street
under the sun this crowd will meet

in the schools, where the braindead drool
on the blackboard are the signs of war
but i see her walking to my bed
under the covers the fire is fed

in the clouds, where the jesters play
black as hell, you'll work all day
but i see her lips locked with mine
she lends me a lyric to give me a sign

in the bed, where the children dance
without their shirts, and without their pants
but they saw us lovin' through the night
so give me a lift to nowhere tonight

wake up
wake up
wake up
from this dream
