As I ride in the motor tide I look for somewhere All I see is other faces All I find is nowhere I like a place or some place That no-one gets to She says "A town is just a town, full stop" But what does she know? Here comes a great wave To wash it all away No piece of gla** or chrome remains Here comes that wave again See how fast it flows We'll wash this place right down the drain In the dark a thousand cars Hiss by my window A steel tide on a asphalt beach They come and they go I hear a beat in the motor seat That I could die to She says "A town is just a town, full stop" But what does she know? Here comes a great wave To wash it all away No piece of gla** or chrome remains Here comes that wave again See how fast it flows We'll wash this place right down the drain Here comes a great wave (x 4) Here comes that wave again
