The Safe Way Lyrics - Legendary Pink Dots

The right hand grips, the left hand slides. The pennies drop, 

the boxes glide. It never stops. She worked the line 

blind. Folded, pushed, . . . A pirhouette. No thought, no joy, 

no regrets. A cigarette was hanging from a cord and 

every thousand boxes she'd suck her reward and find 

her island. But the siren howled. The whip cracked 

anda pre-packed mountain pressed her neck. She'd 

switch to frantic, automatic. Clear the decks. Turn on, 

tune in--machine was humming omm. Neon. Flashing 

laser blade was scratching OBEY! No rest, no play. 

No time. She worked the line. The pay was fine. 

She'd find her island in July and find a rock to 

sit on quietly humming ommmm. The pay was fine. She 

worked the line. She'd find her island in July and 

find a rock to sit on quietly humming OBEY . . .
