Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros - Arms Aloft Lyrics

Sometimes, theres no star shining
Scouting the edge of the universe
Sometimes, you cant see a horizon
Between the ocean and the earth

And just when youre thinking
About slinkin down
Im gonna pull you up
Im gonna pull you round

May I remind you of that scene
The spirit is our gasoline
May I remind you of that scene
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen

May I remind you of that scene
Let a million mirror balls beam
May I remind you of that scene

And you say living aint nothing but hassles
In a Manilla envelope rain
And driving coal all night to Newcastle
Its getting to be a repetitive strain
And just when you thought you're
Going down the drain

May I remind you of that scene
The spirit is our gasoline
May I remind you of that scene
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen

May I remind you of that scene
Let a million mirror balls beam
May I remind you of that scene

Im gonna pull you up
Im gonna pull you round

May I remind you of that scene
The spirit is our gasoline
May I remind you of that scene
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen

Let a million mirror balls beam
The spirit is our gasoline
May I remind you of that scene
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen

They say the stars cant see their rays
Nor can they count their numbered days
No flower see what perfume is
We got all this and bird and diz

May I remind you of that scene
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen
May I remind you of that scene
