Fish - Shortcut To Somewhere lyrics

--- "Shortcut to Somewhere" Taken from the movie "Quicksilver" --- He was a fallen angel from the Tower of Babble Strung out on a high wire Another skyline drifter, an immaculate stranger A legend for the wild west end So when you're running in a slipstream of the ratrace veterans Only one thing left to do (Slide Away) Take a breath, slide away Quicksilver the clean cut easy way through Well it's no Easy Rider ain't no midnight cowboy Took his place at the starting line Cos he left you behind with his reputation lone ranger, no friendships are mine So when you've worked out the problems And you've worked out the angles(the angles) And you've worked out what you wanted to do (Slide Away) Take a Breath Slide Away Quicksilver The only style that you ever knew That you ever knew Everybody's wanting a Shortcut to Somewhere Everyone's needing someone to look up to Everyone's looking for somebody's hero Are they nowhere to be found? Are they nowhere to be found?! With the high heels clicking down the avenue semafore Tapping out a series distress to yesterday's zeros those reluctant young heroes Need a light to lead them out of this mess So when you've worked out the problems And you've worked out the angles(the angles) And you've worked out what you wanted to do (slide Away) Take a Breath Slide Away Quicksilvert The only style that you ever knew That you ever knew He was a fallen angel from the tower of Babble Strung up on the high wire Another skyline drifter, an immaculate stranger A legend for the wild west end. So when you're running in a slipstream With the ratrace veterans Only one thing left to do (Slide Away) Take a breath slide away Quicksilver The clean cut fast easy way through Well its no Easy Rider ain't no midnight cowboy Took his place at the starting line Because he left you behind with his reputation Everybody's wanting a Shortcut to Somewhere Everyone's needing someone to look up to Everyone's looking for somebody's hero Are they nowhere to be found?!
