"God Rocket (Into The Heart Of Las Vegas)" by I Mother Earth
Undertow, you're thrown
An old God has one bolt left
In flight
An aeroplane in slow motion
With all around unsure
I'll hole up in the right place and wait
Until the tide has turned.....With anger
I'm dead weight
I'm anchored
The white dove has gone
The one world has come down hard
So why not
Share the pain of our problems
When all around are wrong ways
When all around is hurt
I'll roll up in an odd shape and wait
Until the tide has turned.....With anger
I'm dead weight
I'm anchored
Can somebody give me the "all safe"
Can somebody tell me
I'm so well loved in the glow and stain
In the slow parade, will somebody tell me
I'm so well loved
...And the light that shines
Our road has overstated nothing while all the wine and hope
Are like a hill that you will climb slow for something you could
Not ever have
And when you said, "Now the dream is dead, our autumns
Will never rise again"
You were right again and it hurts
Wild awesome friends
They face a plain red sober wind and know the pain
For what it is
They're always the ones who slow the drift
Who live for all that's more than this
Who live for all that burns
To choose their words.....With anger
And dead weight
They're anchored
Went looking for something good with August
In the rain and all I've ever saved
I'm stuck at the fork that hides
My road
Why does the ground take hold once every
Mile from home?

Hey, wake up, your eyes weren't open wide
For the last couple of miles you've been swerving from side to side
You're gonna make me spill my beer,
If you don't learn how to steer
Passenger side, passenger side,
I don't like riding on the passenger side
Roll another number for the road
You're the only sober person I know
Won't you let me make you a deal,
Just get behind the wheel
Passenger side, passenger side,
I don't like riding on the passenger side
Should've been the driver, could've been the one
I should've been your lover, but I hadn't seen...
Can you take me to the store, then the bank?
I've got five dollars we can put in the tank
I've got a court date coming this June
I'll be driving soon
Passenger side, passenger side,
I don't like riding on the passenger side
I don't like riding on the passenger side

I was just talking to someone about lyrics as separate from the music. I'm lousy at understanding them completely, with most bands, so at Karaoke one of the most interesting things for me is finding out what the lyrics really are. Sometimes they start making more sense, sometimes I'm left completely disturbed and wish I could separate the lyrics from the music again.
Have you ever been to New Zealand before?
