Lyrics Graham Parker

Graham Parker

Soul On Ice

Every story told me, is wasted on my ears

Ah someone else's therapy, well someone else's fears

Every body said ah come onto my side,

Just to lead me up a blind alley way

Nothing worse than a fool's advice

And it aint't hot enough for a soul on ice

Freezin freezin like a soul on ice

Freezin freezin like a soul on ice

Freezin freezin like a soul on ice, freezin!

Try to read the sharp words but they don't even cut

They're stupid and they're absurd, they're just another rut

Well baby I am gonna crash on a main road

Yeah and I am run aground on a sea

Nothing worse than a fool's advice

And it aint't hot enough for a soul on ice

Chorus ends on a then bridge

Nothing I can do, babe I'm trying to

Can't even get a hand from you

Like a stranglehold, way you least expect

Stand right here baby, freeezin too, freezin too, freezin too,

Freezin freezin

Everybody's sweet words they fall on stony ground

There's nothing that they can do, can do, can do

To thaw this soul down

Well, every body said ah come onto my side,

Just to lead me up a blind alley way

Nothing worse than a fool's advice

And it aint't hot enough for a soul on ice
