Watching the Hydroplanes (Portastudio, 1981) Songtext
von Tunnelvision

You are watching the hydroplanes on TV
The dull 50′s pain was in your head
Dying in walls he'd ask it each year
You′ve never had it so dead

Watching the hydroplanes crippling in check
You're my Woolsey baby
Fed on dreck

A Thornbrough airshow you and me
Holding my arms we're just as free as
Tony Curtis the DC-3
Slow and crying

Watching the hydroplanes crippling in check
You′re my Woolsey baby
Fed on dreck


And now we are married we have a kid
The hydroplane′s gone
Babe, it's gone
The 50′s are over the black and white dream
Gilbert hiding a primatal scream

Watching the hydroplanes crippling in check
You're my Woolsey baby
Fed on dreck

Quite the night through lace and tan
We′ve got a bad new woolsey man
Who listens to broadcasts in '54
Hydroplanes are back at your door

Watching the hydroplanes crippling in check
You′re my Woolsey baby
Fed on dreck

Quite the night through lace and tan
We've got a bad new woolsey man
Who listens to broadcasts in '54
Hydroplanes are back at your door
Watching the hydroplanes
Crippling in check
You′re my Woolsey baby
Fed on dreck
