The Bad Roads Lyrics by The Last Drive

Blood Nirvana

1990

Gently like a blade
The night keeps moving in
Turning all the streetlights
Into a blood-painted sheet
I go walkin'
I need some talking
Like your father baby
Needs your pills
An you make me move
An you let me up
Let me down
Let me cruising all around
The bad roads
Gently like the night
The knife keeps moving in
Releasing all the angels out
Of the bopper machine
I go walking
I need no talking
I'm a red rat
Living in a black'n'white world
And you make me move
And you let me up
Let me down
Get me cruising all around
The bad roads
Oohh baby can't you see what's following me
Making all those white lights
Shine on me
I go walking
I need no talking
Now I' m getting ready
For the longest ride of them all
An' you make me move
An' you let me up
Let me down
Let me cruising all around
The bad roads
There's a roadkill on highway 13, baby
