Lyrics Eugene McGuinness

Eugene McGuinness

Thunderbolt

Standing on the rocks gazing across the blue lagoon

Sing me a melancholy melody from your moon

The metropolis is growling with bulldozers and vacuums

I don't believe in magic but I do believe in you

Yes you, who do not operate at escalator speed

Yes you, who function way above all our collective leagues

While I run on a treadmill like a lab rat on a wheel

From no one to nowhere brainwashed by your weird showreel

Strike me like a thunderbolt

Strike me with a billion volts

I'm a commoner gagging out for common assault

Strike me psycho, thunderbolt

I see strange shadows shoot across my bedroom at night

Sirens swirl in neon worlds and get me all excited

I leave my room on a moonbeam to the ministry of sound

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

And the gods are drunk

Snorting stardust

They feast on our fears

And spunk on our trust

But paradise is ours

If we will it

Paradise is ours

If we build it

Strike me like a thunderbolt

Strike me with a billion volts

I'm a commoner gagging out for common assault

Strike me psycho, thunderbolt

Thunderbolt (Thunderbolt Thunderbolt..)

Thunderbolt (Thunderbolt Thunderbolt..)

Strike me like a thunderbolt

Strike me with a billion volts

I'm a commoner gagging out for common assault

Strike me psycho, thunderbolt

Standing on the rocks gazing across the blue lagoon

Sing me a melancholy melody from your moon

The metropolis is growling with bulldozers and vacuums

I don't believe in magic but I do believe in you

Yes you, who do not operate at escalator speed

Yes you, who function way above all our collective leagues

While I run on a treadmill like a lab rat on a wheel

From no one to nowhere brainwashed by your weird showreel

I see strange shadows shoot across my bedroom at night

Sirens swirl in neon worlds and get me all excited

I leave my room on a moonbeam to the ministry of sound

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town

We'll burn rubber, baby with the boy racers through town
