lyrics

Going through a rough patch
Looking for that easy track
I thought I'd slip away for the weekend.

Must've had a heart attack
Can't explain the change that
Turned me back into a caveman.

Better take cover there's a storm coming in
Unlike before, nothing's blowing in the wind
Can't save the future on pennies and dimes
Black clouds chase the skyline.

Diving from the top notch
Hits you like a glass of scotch
I've never had the stomach for such drinking.

What's that washed up on the rocks?
A dream so real a paradox
I can't tell if I'm swimming or I'm sinking.

Better take cover there's a storm coming in
Unlike before, nothing's blowing in the wind
Can't save the future on pennies and dimes
Black clouds chase the skyline.
