Rickety Bike

[Chorus]

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

[Verse 1]

When the streets are bare, when the skies are grey

I get on my rickety bike and I ride away

Down the old brick lane and Chinatown

Past the pier, up the hill to the lighthouse

In the quiet, I hear the waves crying out

I think I feel the earth move while I'm lying down

This moment on the cliff above the sea

When the wind is the cherry in the gluttony

I sit and stare at the ground that's under me

A sweet daydream away from all the other things

And I run to the forest, all deep green

And I listen to the sound of my breathing

And meander down an overgrown path

Where the bees are humming bug like Mozart

I stop and smell every rose I pass

And it heals the pain of a broken heart

[Chorus]

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me now

[Verse 2]

She told me everything she feel is pure

I told her she don't love me, she is insecure

But she still want me to give it to her

And I will, until she start to think it's more

I ride in autumn and watch the leaves fall

Ride my bike along the sea floor

My legs are so tired but I keep on

I ride to leave behind my demons

My bike is too rickety to get me home

But I love it too much to ever let it go

I saw a shoreline through my periscope

Met a woman with gold hair in Mexico

And she smelt of vanilla and biscuits

She liked to keep me at a distance

And we would tangle up like a pretzel

And I would ride home, feeling all special

[Chorus]

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me now

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me

Ride my rickety bike down the hill with no hands

Nothing bad's gonna happen to me
