Peter Hammill - Careering lyrics

I don't know, can't you see I'm just pa**ing through, fast as you – Don't ask me Careering out of control Disappearing down the black hole Careering – the white man's soul Stands stark naked in the floodlight glare Stands stark raving on the strap I've had the feeling that I've been there But I can't quite believe it I don't know, can't you see I'm just pa**ing through, fast as you So don't ask me Careering, simply day to day Engineering everything I say Careering for the work and the pay I'm just a pa**enger pa**ing through I'm just an average chap (We are normal.) If I said I hadn't got a clue There'd still come the questions I don't know, can't you see I'm just another case of wasted space So don't ask me Careering, my apprenticeship No nearer than my pension slip; Careering down the Cresta Run I screw it up just like anyone; Careering – pointless anyway To do it just for the work and the pay Look here: I don't know, can't you see I'm so near the end, get it straight, friend – Don't ask me Don't ask me Don't ask me
