Locomotion (Live At The Mermaid Theatre 2011)

Crossing every ocean for the sake of locomotion
Crossing every ocean for the sake of locomotion

Across every ocean
For the sake of locomotion
But I wouldn't have a notion
How to save my soul

I walk down the sidewalk
Run down the boardwalk
Stop and make small talk
But I can't say no

See I can't say no, I can't say yes
I can't even write down my own address
I can't touch heaven, it's a little too far
It's the only way to travel by dreaming on a par

Staring out the window
Wonder where you are
Moving through the landscape
At a million miles an hour

Across every nation
From the harbour to the station
It's a form of inspiration
It's the power to the slaves

They're running out of railways
Sail across the sea ways
Fly through the airways
But they can't say no

Can't stand up, can't stand still
I know you wouldn't like it if I told you how I feel
I just want to say it's only common sense
The words always fail me at my own expense

Staring out the window
Wonder where you are
Moving through the landscape
At a million miles an hour
Paul!

Across every ocean (Across every ocean)
For the sake of locomotion (For the sake of locomotion)
But I wouldn't have a notion (But I wouldn't have a notion)
How to save my soul (How to save my soul)
Across every ocean (Across every ocean)
For the sake of locomotion (For the sake of locomotion)
But I wouldn't have a notion (But I wouldn't have a notion)
How to save my soul (How to save my soul)

I walk down the sidewalk (I walk down the sidewalk)
Run down the boardwalk (Run down the boardwalk)
Stop and make small talk (Stop and make small talk)
But I can't say no

To all of you
That's everybody here in the Mermaid
And everybody at home
And even these three guys up here with me
Crossing every ocean for the sake of locomotion
Crossing every ocean for the sake of locomotion

Crossing every ocean for the sake of locomotion
Crossing every ocean for the sake of locomotion

Thank you!
Thank you!
Alright!
Okay!
