DIRE STRAITS - Skateaway lyrics

rate me

I seen a girl on a one way corridor<br>Stealing down a wrong way street<br>For all the world like an urban toreador<br>She had wheels on on her feet<br>Well the cars do the usual dances<br>Sames old cruise and the kerbside crawl<br>But the rollergirl she's taking chances<br>They just love to see her take them all<br><br>No fears alone at night she's sailing through the crowd<br>In her ears the phones are tight and the music's playing loud<br><br>Hallelujah here she comes queens rollerball<br>Enchante what can I say don't care at all<br>You know she used to have to wait around<br>She used to be the lonely one<br>But now that she can skate around town<br>She's the only one<br><br>No fears alone at night she's sailing through the crowd<br>In her ears the phones are tight and the music's playing loud<br><br>She gets rock n roll a rock n roll station<br>And a rock n roll dream<br>She's making movies on location<br>She don't know what it means<br>But the music make her wanna be the story<br>And the story was whatever was the song what it was<br>Rollergirl don't worry<br>D.j. play the movies all night long<br><br>She tortures taxi drivers just for fun<br>She like to read their lips<br>Says toro toro taxi see ya tomorrow my son<br>I swear she let a big truck graze her hip<br>She got her own world in the city<br>You can't intrude on her<br>She got her own world in the city<br>Cos the city's been so rude to her<br><br>Come slippin and a slidin<br>Life's a rollerball<br>Slippin and a slidin<br>Skateaway that's all<br>Shala shalay hey hey skateaway<br>She's singing shala shalay hey hey<br>Skateaway
