LIZ PHAIR - Greased Lightning lyrics

I had a dream, and you were in it.

You ran a race, but you didn't win it.

And I wasn't sorry to see you lose

I would have paid good money, to have them grease your shoes

Grease lightning, going no where at all

It was frightening to watch you skid, right into a fall

You spent your life expecting me to watch

So each time you slipped down, I cut a lower notch.

So I wasn't sorry to feel you slide.

If this is your body, I'm a thorn in your side.

Grease lightning, going no where at all

It was frightening to watch you skid, right into a fall

If you think that it's gone and forgotten, then you're wrong

Grease lightning, going no where at all

It was frightening to watch you skid, right into a fall

Grease lightning, going no where at all

It was frightening to watch you skid, right into a fall
