Greased Lightning Lyrics - Liz Phair

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
