Lightning Man Lyrics - Showtime - Nitzer Ebb

It seems some story was told 

But what is there to tell? 

Well, some song had been sung 

But none of it sings 

So let's spell it out 

A, B, and C 

Up and down from A is to Z 

You meant zed, you said zed 

From nothing to something 

And something for nothing 

From no one to someone 

From someone to same 

Same old thing 

The only way out 

Leads to no way back 

What can you do? 

Easy, you shove it back where it came 

Easy, you never let yourself down 

So you got up and you ran 

And you run to get up through Chinatowns 

To slip right down 

Soho's a town in every downtown 

Drinking friends who've drunk in bars 

Whose drunken friends in drinking bars 

Waiting for the lightning man to strike 

Icing on your cake 

Well, if I knew you were comin' 

I'd cut you a piece 

Baby, come to daddy 

Baby, come to daddy 

Baby, come to daddy 

Daddy's come to baby 

Daddy's come to baby 

Come to daddy, baby 

Baby, come to daddy 

Easy, you shove it back where it came 

Easy, you never let yourself down 

You better be careful out there 

You be careful out there 

You better be careful out there 

You be careful 

You ain't gonna get far 

You better be careful out there 

You ain't gonna get far 

You ain't gonna get far 

You be careful out there 

You ain't gonna get far 

You ain't gonna get far 

You be careful out there 

You better be careful out there 

We're gonna pluck you off 

You better be careful out there 

You ain't gonna get far 

You ain't gonna get far 

We're gonna pluck you off 

We're gonna pluck you off 

We're gonna pluck you off 

Baby, come to daddy 

Daddy's come to baby 

Daddy's come to baby 

Come to daddy 

Come to baby 

Baby, come to daddy 

Daddy's come to baby 

Come to daddy 

Easy, you shove it right back down 

Easy, you never listen to this
