Trans - Island Skyway Lyrics - Steely Dan

I was born yesterday 

When they brought my kamakiri 

When they handed me the keys 

It's a steam-power 10 

The frame is out of glasgow 

The tech is balinese 

It's not a freeway bullet 

Or a bug with monster wheels 

It's a total biosphere 

The farm in the back 

Is hydroponic 

Good, fresh things 

Every day of the year 

Good, fresh things 

Every day of the year

LATEST SONG: Post Malone - 'Goodbyes' - Lyrics ft. Young Thug 

NEW SONG: Ed Sheeran - 'BLOW' Lyrics ft. Chris Stapleton & Bruno Mars 

With all screens and functions 

In sync lock with tripstar 

This cool rolling bubble 

Is all set to samba 

This route could be trouble 

(this route could be trouble) 

Chorus: 

Steamin' up 

That trans-island skyway 

Tryin' to make that final deadline 

And if the lanes are clear 

We're gonna drive a little harder 

We'll be deep in the zone by cryin' time 

Photos 

Say, there's a wreck 

On the side of the road 

Lots of blood and broken glass 

The kid who was driving 

I know from somewhere 

Some kids just drive too fast 

Wait just a minute 

There's a beautiful survivor 

With dancer's legs and laughing eyes 

C'mon snakehips, it's all over now 

Strap in tight cause it's a long sweet ride 

Relax - put some sounds on 

I'll brew up some decaf 

C'mon kick off those heels ma'am 

Now breathe in and sigh out 

Let's get with the program 

(let's talk about the good times) 

Chorus 

We reach the sprangle 

Just at dawn 

These little streets I used to know 

Is that my father 

Mowin' the lawn 

(c'mon daddy get in let's go) 

C'mon daddy get in let's go 

C'mon daddy get in let's go 

C'mon daddy get in let's go 

C'mon daddy get in let's go 

C'mon daddy get in let's go 

C'mon daddy get in let's go 

We pull into five zoos 

Past motels and drive-thrus 

That noon sun is blinding 

The tidepools are boiling 

Below plates are grinding 

(let's talk about the good times) 

Chorus
