Living On The Edge Of The World |
(Wow!)
Early North Jersey industrial skyline (oh po oh po oh po po)
I'm an all-set cobra jet creeping through the night time (oh po oh po oh po po)
Gotta find a gas station, gotta find a pay phone (oh po oh po oh po po)
This turnpike sure is spooky at night when you're all alone (oh po oh po oh po po)
I'm living on the edge of the world trying to get my girl on the line (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Living on the edge of the world but I think it's just a waste of my time (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Some jerk keeps breaking my connection, girl (breaking my connection)
'Cause I'm living on the edge of the world (living on the edge of the world)
Living on the edge of the world
Radio, radio, hear my tale of heartbreak (oh po oh po oh po po)
New Jersey in the morning like a lunar landscape (oh po oh po oh po po)
Got a counter girl at the Exit 24 HoJo (oh po oh po oh po po)
Down past the refinery towers where the great black river flows (oh po oh po oh po po)
I'm living on the edge of the world trying to get back to you, girl (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Living on the edge of the world trying to get a message through (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
I gotta make a connection, girl (make connection)
'Cause I'm living on the edge of the world (living on the edge of the world)
Living on the edge of the world
Alright!
(Hoo hoo hoo hoo)
(Hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Radio's jammed with gospel stations (oh po oh po oh po po)
Lost souls calling long distance salvation (oh po oh po oh po po)
Hey mister deejay gotta hear my last prayer (oh po oh po oh po po)
It's a hey ho rock and roll, deliver me from nowhere (oh po oh po oh po po)
I'm living on the edge of the world trying to get back to you, girl (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Living on the edge of the world trying to get a message through (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
I gotta make some connection, girl (make some connection)
'Cause I'm living on the edge of the world (living on the edge of the world)
Living on the edge
I gotta make some connection, girl (make some connection)
'Cause I'm living on the edge of the world (living on the edge of the world)
Living on the edge of the world
Now my boss don't dig me 'cause he put me on the night shift
It takes me two hours to get back to where my baby lives
In the wee wee hours my mind gets hazy
Relay towers, won't you lead me to my baby
'Neath the overpass the trooper hits his party lights switch
Good night, good luck, one, two powershift
(Living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Po po po po, po po po po
Po po po po, po po po po (living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Po po po po, po po po po
Po po po po, po po po po (living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Po po po po, po po po po
Po po po po, po po po po (living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Po po po po, po po po po
(Living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Po po po po, po po po po
(Living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
Po po
(Living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
(Living on the edge of the world) (hoo hoo hoo hoo)
(Living on the edge of the world)
