Jethro Tull - Heavy Horses lyrics

I'm on a roll

Everything I touch turns to shh..

It's taking it's toll

Can anybody get me off it?

Stuck on a roll

And it's wearing thin

I remember the night

No wet eyes, no crossroads

No mention of fate

Just a poor decision

I shouldn't have gone

Even though my head would bust

I shoudn't have gone

[Chorus]

Be careful what you hope and you pray for

You know you only get what you pay for

And I can hear the ticking of timebombs

For poor Cinderella

I'm on a roll

Everything I touch turns to gold

It's taking its toll

Can anybody get me off it?

I shouldn't have gone

Even though my head was busting

I shouldn't have gone

[Chorus]

Be careful what you hope and you pray for

You know you only get what you pay for

And I can hear the ticking of timebombs

The clock strikes

It's midnight

For poor Cinderella
