Steady On
S. Colvin/J. Leventhal 

   China gets broken
   And it will never be the same
   Boats on the ocean
   Find their way back again
   I am weaving
   Like a drunkard
   Like a balloon up in the air
   I am needing a puncture and someone
   To point me somewhere
   I'm gonna keep my head on straight
   I just hope it's not too late
   Open up the gate I go straight on, steady on

   Steady on! 

   I was feeling imploded
   A wooden smile, a wooden heart
   The things exploded
   Like rockets in the dark
   Now I'm pulling out splinters
   And I'm off to hibernate somewhere
   For the nuclear winter
   Of another love affair

   "Cause he seemed like a miracle
   I ate it up like cereal
   But it was something like shrapnel

   Steady On! 

   It's like ten miles of a two-lane
   On a South Dakota wheat plain
   In the middle of a hard rain
   A slow boat or a fast train
   I am gonna keep my head on straight
   I'm gonna keep my head on straight

   Steady on!
