Nerves On Ice lyrics

You don`t need the papers to read between the lines
And you don`t need the grapevine to say what`s on your mind
Hangin` on the corner in the opera of the street
Eyes of imitation on everyone you meet
Dance to the music--sing to my song
Come to the party--and bring your friends along, listen

Roll over...get down
Gonna make you...right now
So heavy...so nice
We`ll put your...nerves on ice

I been to the banker and i been to see the queen
Six of seven wonders have i made out of my dreams
I could be a junkie--i could be like you
We could be together...then what would we do
Life for the takin` is just outside your door
Time is the one thing that no one can afford
Listen...
Roll over...right now
Gonna make you...get down
So heavy...s`all right
We`ll put your nerves on ice

Don`t let them bring you down
Don`t let them turn you upside down
Only the strong survive...
And no one here gets out alive

Call for the doctor--you can call out for a priest
But you can`t take it with you when they`re taggin` your disease
There`re no easy lessons--and there`re no guarantees
But you can go the distance be what you want to be
Stand where you`re able...leave with your pride
Come to the table and throw down for your side, listen

Roll over...get down
You`re gonna like it...and how
So heavy...so right
We`ll put your nerves on ice

Don`t let them bring you down
Don`t let them turn you upside down
...don`t think twice
...nerves on ice
Don`t let them bring you down
Don`t let them leave you on the edge of town
...don`t think twice
...nerves on ice
