Wall Of Death

Richard Thompson

Let me ride on the Wall Of Death one more time

Let me ride on the Wall Of Death one more time

You can waste your time on the other rides

This is the nearest to being alive

Oh let me take my chances on the Wall Of Death



You can go with the crazy people in the Crooked House

You can fly away on the Rocket or spin in the Mouse

The Tunnel Of Love might amuse you

Noah's Ark might confuse you

But let me take my chances on the Wall Of Death



On the Wall Of Death all the world is far from me

On the Wall Of Death it's the nearest to being free



Well you're going nowhere

When you ride on the carousel

And maybe you're strong

But what's the good of ringing a bell

The switchback will make you crazy.

Beware of the bearded lady

Oh let me take my chances on the Wall Of Death



Let me ride on the Wall Of Death one more time

Oh let me ride on the Wall Of Death one more time

You can waste your time on the other rides

This is the nearest to being alive

Oh let me take my chances on the Wall Of Death

Let me take my chances on the Wall Of Death

Oh let me take my chances on the Wall Of Death
