Lyrics

She comes on like a stone But you don't know where from she was thrown Like a burning meteor from miles high Looking for a place to land She said, "Have you got yourself some sand?" And whatever you replied, she took as yes Now she comes after thee With her newly planted seeds and soon You're prone down on your knees and there you dig And then before you know the weeds are Obesely overgrown with all the Wild seed she sows in your sleep You gotta know you'll never let her go She's a lightning bolt Lightning bolt Lightning bolt Always something and never nothing Isn't that the way we're taught to be, to be? Flipping through the worn out pages And stages when you knew not who to be Yeah, yeah Until the lightning strike sets you free, yeah You gotta know you'll never let her go She's a lightning bolt Lightning bolt Lightning bolt The crashing stormy waves erode her Shoreline everyday until the Castle of her ways turn to sand She holds her lovely breast As her birds fall from the nest Flying towards the great northwest Yeah yeah yeah And with no repair in sight There is no God with such might As to open her world wide with subterfuge Yeah your death will soon arrive As she finally decides that all her Problems, they won't die with you Ay yeah Ay yeah Ay yeah Never let her go She's your lightning bolt Never let her go She's true She's your rock 'n roll She's your lightning bolt Uncontrollable Like you
