Sometimes the Wheels Songtext
von Neil Halstead

Knock on the door, it? s early morning
Man in a suit says he wants to talk to me
About the big JC, who the fuck is he?

Each time that he takes a bible
Says he was a man just like you and me
Oh, woo pee dee

I don? t like his suit and I don? t like his tie
And I don? t like the fact he? s so happy
It can? t be for me, the big JC

Sometimes the wheels fall off
And sometimes you can? t get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don? t talk much

Sometimes the world moves fast
And sometimes you can? t keep up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don? t think much, no I don? t think much
No I don? t think much


Boy on the pavement, he? s looking a picture
He looks like the eighties, Oh why did it happen to me?
Twice in a life time now, twice in a life time Lord

My teenage years tryna not look like
Somebody like him, but what can I do?

Shoulder pads and belts, Morten Harket in tights
Oh, I? m sorry they? re jeans, how did ya get them on?
Will they ever come off? Will they ever come off?

Sometimes the wheels fall off
And sometimes you can? t get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don? t talk much

Sometimes the world moves fast
And sometimes you can? t keep up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don? t think much, no I don? t think much
No I don? t think much

Knock on the door, it? s early evening, it? s dangerous Dave
He? s come to break my house? cos he? s a dangerous sod
But I like him a lot


And we talk about music and we talk about friends
Before we realize that we don? t know much about either of them
And that? s the way things are between Dave and me

Shoulder pads and belts, Morten Harket in tights
Oh, I? m sorry they? re jeans, but how did ya get them on?
Will they ever come off? Will they ever come off?

Sometimes the world moves fast
And sometimes you can? t get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don? t talk much

Sometimes the wheels fall off
And sometimes you can? t get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don? t think much, no I don? t think much
No I don? t think much, no I don? t think much
No I don? t think much
