This is a dangerous tale
Of oxygen and flame
Tale of running away.
Nowhere to run,
All I can see is you
Visions of water in the desert sun
Stay...
Chorus:
Things gonna get Real Slow Today;
Things gonna get real slow today.
Takes one prisoner,
Takes one to show him the way,
Then comes this lesson in natural history.
And these ladies are laughing at me
Can I join the fun?
I know I'm haunted, keeps the flame bright
I guess I can say I'm alright
Just a burning arrow stuck in my heart
Well, anyway...
Chorus:
Things gonna get real slow today;
Things gonna get real slow today.
Takes one prisoner,
Takes one to show him the way,
Then comes this lesson in natural history.
And some people say that
We shouldn't cross this line,
But there is no line
Only the sky.
I want to see you smile,
Want to feel us get up and fly
Shouldn't we?
Chorus:
Things gonna get real slow today;
Things gonna get real slow today.
Takes one prisoner,
Takes one to show him the way,
Then comes this lesson in natural history.
