This song was the first one where Andrew and Zed both jammed/sang their vocals at the same time "live" onto one microphone, with each verse line having totally unique delivery. It was a technique that was then used more often in subsequent tracks.
lyrics
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath, before saying something you might regret
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath, before saying something you might regret.
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath, before saying something you might regret.
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath, before saying something you might regret.
Sometimes with words, there's no turning back
and we all know how crazy it gets when you say foolish things
Sometimes with words, there's no turning back
and we all know how crazy it gets when you say foolish things
Sometimes with words, there's no turning back
and we all know how crazy it gets when you say foolish things
Sometimes with words, there's no turning back
and we all know how crazy it gets when you say foolish things
Gotta keep on keeping on keep on going tonight
it's a dead end street man
Gotta keep on keeping on keep on going tonight
it's a dead end street man
Keep on going down.
Where's that kiss, the healing kiss, the one that takes us out of ourselves
out of ourselves and away from ourselves
Where's that kiss, the healing kiss, the one that takes us out of ourselves
out of ourselves and away from ourselves
Where's that kiss, the healing kiss, the one that takes us out of ourselves
out of ourselves and away from ourselves
Where's that kiss, the healing kiss, the one that takes us out of ourselves
out of ourselves and away from ourselves
Gotta keep on keeping on keep on going tonight, it's a dead end street man
Gotta keep on keeping on keep on going tonight, it's a dead end street man
Gotta keep on keeping on keep on going tonight, it's a dead end street man
Gotta keep on keeping on keep on going tonight, it's a dead end street man
Keep on going down.
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath, before saying something you might regret.
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath, before saying something you might regret.
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath, before saying something you might regret.
Been a long way, take a long time
Take a deep breath
