Cannonball Stan

★ marissa ★

Red shiny suit
Lightening stripes
Knee high boots
He always looks dashing under the lights

You couldn't tell
But he's sad tonight
Like a bat out of hell
He's a Human Cannonball
And he'll still take flight

But he'll be thinking...

No~ no~no~~
This helmet's OK for today,
But when she breaks me
All the moustache wax
In the world won't save me
And I wont be leading the way
So where she takes me
All the moustache wax
In the world won't save me
Won't save me

Alone in his tube
Arms by his side
Too late to move
He thinks of his girl and the rising tide

No way out
One way to go
She's gonna hurt
And all he can do is brace for the blow

And he'll be thinking...

No~no~no~~
This helmet's OK for today,
But when she breaks me
All the moustache wax
In the world won't save me
And I wont be leading the way
So where she takes me
All the moustache wax
In the world won 't save me
Won't save me

And he'll be thinking...

No~no~no~~
This helmet's OK for today,
But when she breaks me
All the moustache wax
In the world won't save me
And I wont be leading the way
So where she takes me
All the moustache wax
In the world won't save me
Won't save me

He's all set
Knows where he'll land
Heads for the net
At least some things go according to plan

End
