Surefoot Sonia Lyrics

Surefoot Sonia steals the stage

Says she's a mucked-up freaked-out chick

Tugs at another tucked-in fold

From the file of forgotten myths

She'll swoop to woo the misfit tribes

From prophecies of gloom

Then bid them by the shifting tide

To cheat the waxing moon

Her double-fisted backhand

Hides a double-edging swerve

'Cos we know she thinks the answer is

Just to dope away the hurt

She'll calculate precisely

The assault upon our nerves

But will one so blind ever reap

The contempt that she deserves?

Can't you see that she's not worth feeding?

Don't you see that she has to starve?

The cost incurred if you ease her bleeding

Will be the price you'll pay when you raise your guard

Wrat and Tripper rumble in

With raunchy tales to tell

They'll flick a half-chewed snatch of gum

In the hippy wishing well

They'll pledge themselves to every 'cause

Then scan the sky for God's applause

But they'll lose their grip and break their claws

As they ride the road to hell

How they'll hide when the vulture's yearning

And they'll ask if it's all worthwhile

Is there no way that they'll learn by learning

No redress from each others' trial?

Bold Beata bikes on by

Braves her heartmelt song

She twists to sneer at deafened ears

That are judging right from wrong

She turns to jibe at blinded eyes

As they race to chase the sun

Saying 'You can choose your own disguise

To shield your eyes and run!'

Now she'll hide with the vultures yearning

And she'll ask if it's all worthwhile

Is there no way that we'll learn by learning

No redress from each others' trial?

Surefoot Sonia steals the stage

But she's a messed-up fessed-out kid

She tears another token page

From the file of forgotten myths

She'll swoop to woo the misfit tribes

From prophecies of gloom

Then bid them by the shifting tide

To cheat the waxing moon

She'll swoop to woo the misfit tribes

From prophecies of gloom

Then bid them by the shifting tide

To cheat the waxing moon
