Ice on the Wing

[Verse 1] I am made of Sopwith Camel Sherman PT-17, sixty and cloudy, I go slow Compared to modernity, I am a humming bee Sweater weather and hugs and drugs and movies [Chorus] But baby ice is growing on the wing Baby ice is growing on the wing You rolled the dice but you didn’t know anything [Post-Chorus] Underneath the oxide Underneath the oxide It’s all the same song [Verse 2] I am made of no newspapers When the V-1 buzzing stopped, only prayers I am made of young curiosity, deluded piety Double-whiskey for the men Don’t talk to thy neighbor If they don’t take your same lord as savior In a songless meeting house Proud to be the only ones who get saved in the end From hugs and drugs and movies [Chorus] But baby ice is growing on the wing Baby ice is growing on the wing You rolled the dice but you didn’t know anything [Bridge] What if I start now? Just like someone’s watching me Somebody’s watching me What if I start now? Just like someone’s watching me [Chorus] But baby ice is growing on the wing Baby ice is growing on the wing Baby ice is growing on the wing Baby ice is growing on the wing [Post-Chorus] But underneath the oxide Underneath the oxide Underneath the oxide It’s all the same
