Howe Gelb - Cold lyrics

she was a machine that made sunshine she had a clock that made the train on time she had a pillow that made the blues feel fine she had me with the same old line never make it by design getting in and out in time survival means you're doing fine building up the roadways making the old ones only go one way getting folks like her to move today if you lived here you'd be home by now so they say never make it by design getting out and in in time arrival means you're doing fine she used to say it was so cool till she felt it got too cool she moved to town with her favorite tool now see how cool tools to cruel survival means you're doing fine never making it by design arrival means you're right on time
