Rocking Horse Road (followed by a mighty fine Shipbuilding at 3:35). The chains from the bridle and the reins fell from my hands And the engines are idle and the ship sails on dry land I stood there stupefied, I thought I recognised Walking down Rocking Horse Road - getting lost Shot through Vaseline, he picks up the paper from the lawn And tucks The Suburban Assassin underneath his arm He smiles weakly and turns away I know Ill never come to harm Walking down Rocking Horse Road - its so peaceful Its like a photograph From the other side of the world I said I want you only And then I left you alone Crying on Rocking Horse Road - or somewhere quite like it The cemetery gardens, there are names, not numbers, on the gateposts And the eyes in the curtain follow you like a smirking ghost I know I must not look back Cos part of me is waiting still There on Rocking Horse Road for you In a little dreamhouse made for two Well you were the one who made your escape In your stocking feet and your sticky tape All the way down All the way down All the way down All the way down All the way down Walking down Rocking Horse Rocking Rocking Rocking Horse... (from > Brutal Youth, 1994)
