On The Road Lyrics - Max Webster

(M--Mitchell; L--DuBois) 

C on the road / the heart is slow / the mind is not clocked 

the feet are sore / the hands and eyes are quick / to stop the world. 

on the road / confirms something about yourself 

confirms something about your mold--some say it's freedom 

freedom some say / is when you get back home. 

fights and rights / embassies and fantasies 

one street towns with stop lights / one stop streets with no towns-- 

i don't need the patter / i don't need assistance / to review the show...--C 

i want to keep my pearly whites / i don't want my shirts to keep a fit 

i want a good steak once in a while / a checkered cab to go once in style-- 

freedom some say / is when you get back home 

howls of laughter / sights and sounds / movies and groupies 

one day lover / next day down-- 

i'd like to keep my pearly whites / and have a little stride in life... 

i'd be sometimes late / i'd be sometimes early 

and surely once in a while i'd like to be alone. 

one day aggressive / one day shy 

one day permissive / one day sly... 

on the road confirms something about myself 

confirms something about my storm-- 

some say it needs freedom, 

freedom some say / is after the storm.
