Highways Of Gold

And everybody knows, knows, knows

the highway climbs so high, high, high

Past the skeleton crows

Pecking out the cities eyes



Yeah if you drive, drive, drive

and never look down

you'll pass the spines, spines, spines

connecting the clouds

And if you drive, drive, drive

through the rainbow fence

you'll pass the crystallized

thundercloud gardens



Me and the skeleton rose, rose, rose

lay on our backs one night

watching those luminous roads

tying knots in the night

And we were singing



Highways of gold

Where do they go?

The suns dripping roads

Like flailing tentacles



And everybody knows, knows, knows

that Bobby's gonna die, die, die

The way that skeleton rose

is always getting him high



Oh, when he cries

roads eject from his eyes

And we drive, drive, drive

over his last rights

Yeah, we fly, fly, fly

past a map of his heart

flashing like, like, like

a neon junkyard



And everybody knows

the highway climbs so high

past the skeleton crows

on those towers of time

And we were singing



Highways of gold

Where do they go?

The suns dripping roads

Like flailing tentacles



Highways of gold

Where do they go?

The suns dripping roads

Like flailing tentacles



Highways of gold

Where do they go?

The suns dripping roads

Like flailing tentacles
