WHAT'S NEXT TO THE MOON

Powerage (1978)

(Young, Young,Scott)

 

Well I tied my baby to the railroad track

Cannonball down the line

Giving that woman just a one more chance

To give it to me one more time

Engineer wishing he was home in bed

Dreaming about Casey Jones

Wide-eyed woman heading a mile ahead [...woman half a mile ahead]

Thinking about broken bones

 

CHORUS:

It's her love that I want

It's her love that I need

It's her love got to have

It's her love

 

Heavenly body flying across the sky

Superman was out of town

Come on honey, gotta change your tune

Cause it's a long way down

Clark Kent looking for a free ride

Thinking about Lois Lane

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's - a suicide

And that'd be a shame

 

CHORUS

 

But what's next to the moon?

 

Long Arm looking for a fingerprint

Trying to find the mystery clue

Hitting me with the third degree

Working on a thumb screw

Alright, officer, I confess

Everything's coming back

I didn't mean to hurt that woman of mine

It was a heart attack

 

CHORUS

 

What's next to the moon?
