Steam of Hercules Songtext
von Bob Mould

We stand and watch the stars
The sky was filled without light
The trains below the aeroplanes go
Shuffling through the night


We made it to the ocean
The cliff at the end of the road
And burning off petroleum
To tug that heavy load

We sail against the storm
From mountains through the seas
The sandy beach collapsing from
The steam of Hercules
