Vapour Trails

Titillations been replaced

By interstate, brick face and coffee mate

And by a list of phone calls

You'll like to make

Where you could sit on the edge of your bed

And you could stare into your own shoes

And in the pools of light there

Go wherever you choose

Just rig up a complication and if it derails

You can throw away the rudder and float away like vapour trails

There's nothing funnier than pride

In an utterly confident stride

So i pulled the car on over

To give you a ride

Damn this sleepy weather he said

As he marched in sopping wet shoes

Through rain pools evaporating

Says in this sign i'll conquer you

I pulled the car on over to give you a ride

But there's nothing uglier than a man hitting his stride

Past mexicans all dressed in beige shirts, leaning over their hoes

Now the morning's over it's time to let them sprinklers hose

Past hills of chambermaids' dark bare arms

And fields of muscle quilted to the bone

Right now i'm flying over

Yeah, right now i'm flying home

Where i can sit on the end of my bed

And i can stare into my own shoes

And in the pools of light years

Go wherever i choose

And throw away the rudder, float away on vapour trails

I rigged up a complication, totally derailed

So i throw away the rudder, float away like vapour trails

I pulled the car on over

Throw away the rudder

Throw away the rudder

Throw away the rudder (float away on a vapour trail)

Throw away the rudder (float away on a vapour trail)

Throw away the rudder (float away on a vapour trail)

Throw away the rudder (float away on a vapour trail)

Throw away the rudder (float away on a vapour trail)
