Rocket and a Bomb Lyrics by Aunt Bettys

Aunt Bettys

1996

[Chorus]
All I ever wanted
Was a good job, some bus fare
A rocket and a bomb, uh huh
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Had a dream I'd be all right
Had a nightmare I'd be cracking
Up this 'caine
I lit your vision for a time
'Til it snapped my spine
And bled me from your vein
[Pre-Chorus]
It keeps pushing
It keeps pushing you away
[Chorus]
All I ever wanted
Was a good job, some bus fare
A rocket and a bomb, uh huh
Yeah
[Verse 2]
It's not your fault I made you ill
From this open sore that spills
Pus in your name
I tried to fix on what I feel
But you know that feeling: shame
You're right again
[Pre-Chorus]
It keeps pushing
It keeps pushing
It keeps pushing you away
[Pre-Chorus]
It keeps pushing
It keeps pushing
It keeps pushing
It keeps pushing you away
[Chorus]
All I ever wanted
Was a good job, some bus fare
A rocket and a bomb, uh huh
All I ever wanted
Was a good job, some bus fare
A rocket and a bomb, uh huh
Yeah
[Coda]
Shake
Shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake
Shake
Shake, shake shake, shake
