Loscil - Steam lyrics

Stand back! Stand back!What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet They're on to something, picking up Picking up this heat, this heat[Chorus 1:] Give me steam And how you feel to make it real Real as anything you've seen Get a life with this dreamer's dreamYou know your culture from your trash You know your plastic from your cash When I lose sight of the track You know the way back But I know youYou know your stripper from your paint You know your sinner from your saint Whenever heaven's doors are shut You kick them open but I know you[Chorus 2:] Give me steam And how you feel to make it real Real as any place you've been Get a life with the dreamer's dreamStand back! Stand back! Can't you see I've lost control I'm getting indiscreet You're moving in so close 'til I'm picking up Picking up this heat, this heat[Chorus 1]You know your green from your red You know the quick from the dead So much better than the rest

You think you've been blessed But I know youYou know your ladder from your snake You know the throttle from the brake You know your straight line from a curve You've got a lot of nerve But I know you[Chorus 2]Everybody nosedive Hold your breath, count to five Back-slap, b**by-trap Cover it up in bubble wrap Room shake, earthquake Find a way to stay awake It's going to blow, it's going to break This is more than I can takeOh yeah, I need steam Feel the steam all around me Ah you're turning up the heat When I start to dream aloud See you move your hands and feet Won't you step into this cloud of steam This steam[Chorus 1]Help me yeah Ready to steam out the log jam Stir crazy from the freezer to the boil Water's bubbling, it's b-b-b-bubbling Bubbling [Repeat x 4] Like it's coming to a boil Give me steam, lady Give me steam around me now Ahh, coming alive [Repeat x 2] Said give me some steam
