ike reilly - sheet metal moon lyrics

Loading...

there was a sheet metal moon
the night that jimmy lost his life
swimming in the carburetor lines
he was last seen kissin’
the rings of the pistons
and drinking with the gears as they grind

sat+rday night, and the sheet metal moon
plays tricks with my eyes as it burns through the fumes
the sheet metal moon shines, we’d better take a ride
out to the bridge where we used to get high

the skater kids said
jimmy couldn’t be dead
he just went out to get some speed and k!ll the pain
crossing double lines
he’s shutting down his headlights
and passing in the oncoming lanes

sat+rday night, and the sheet metal moon
plays tricks with my eyes as it burns through the fumes
the sheet metal moon shines, we’d better take a ride
out to the bridge where we used to get high

but there seems to be no sign
as the timing chain is throwing links
and not keeping time
as the manifold is gasping
as the rocker arms wave goodbye
from under the bridge where everybody got high
high

and the black lightning struck
and kid, it’s just your luck
it looks like you crippled your frame
the welds won’t hold
and the bolts all broke
and the shards of glass are swimming in your brain

sat+rday night, and the sheet metal moon
lights up the road as i drive to the tomb
the sheet metal moon and i are riding alone
out to the bridge where he used to get stoned

sat+rday night, and the sheet metal moon
is still playing tricks as i walk through the rooms
i drank all the fuel as i breathe in the fumes
out on west adams road when i went looking for you

sat+rday night, and the sheet metal moon
plays tricks with my eyes as it burns through the fumes
the sheet metal moon shines, we’d better take a ride
out to the bridge where we used to get high

but there seems to be no sign
as the timing chain is throwing links
and not keeping time
as the manifold is gasping
as the rocker arms wave goodbye
from under the bridge where everybody got high
high
