chippin' away
Are you ready? Thumbs are up One, two, three, four Hey mister take a load off let me explain  I'm not hidin' from you carry the blame Have yourself a good look from the Saskatoon plain Nothing's that clear in life I swear by the claim I rack my conscience for the will to achieve  I could lie, die, cry and to this day not receive 'Cause I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile Got a little of the devil and a mean streak 'Cause I hope to one day be complete  In the meantime, yes We're just chippin' away? Eh, got 'ole Michael Hehir playin' on guitar Sometimes we go for months Not talk at all No crumblin' wall here  The journey's come too far 'O rocket spaceship Take us to the stars They're building castles  Straight up to the sky But the Empire States Still looks to me like it's high (I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile Got a little of the devil, and a mean streak)  'Cause I hope to one day be complete In the meantime, yes We're just chippin' away? O yea (I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile) Got a little of the devil and a mean streak I hope to one day be complete, yea I'm not steady like Eddy, 'o no And I may not smile for awhile Got a little of the devil and a mean streak, yea I hope to one day be complete  God I'm not steady like Eddy, 'o no I may not smile for awhile God bless the poor man, who knows what he seeks Cause I hope to one day be complete In the meantime, yes (yoa) We're just chippin' away O-o, (yoa) O-o O-o. "Ha, ha, I'm a bastard." (spoken)
