Shortcut to Somewhere - Tony Banks
He was a fallen angel from the
Tower of Babble
Strung out on the high wire
Another skyline drifter an immaculate stranger
A legend for the wild west end
So when you're running in the slipstream
of the ratrace veterans
Only one thing left to do
Take a breath slide away quicksilver
The clean cut easy way through
It's no easy rider ain't no
midnight cowboy
Took his place at the starting line
'Cause he left you behind
with his reputation
Lone ranger still fresh in our minds
So when you've worked out
The problems and you've
worked out the angles
And you've worked out
what you wanted to do
Take a breath slide away quicksilver
The only style that you ever knew
That you ever knew
That you ever knew
Everyone's wanting a
shortcut to somewhere
Everyone's needing someone
to look up to
Everyone's looking for somebody's hero
Are they nowhere to be found
Are they nowhere to be found
With the high heels clicking out
the avenue semaphore
Tapping out a serious distress
To yesterdays zeros
those reluctant young heroes
Need a light to lead them
out of this mess
So when you're running in the
slipstream of the ratrace veterans
Only one thing left to do
Take a breath slide away quicksilver
It's a clean cut easy way through
He was a fallen angel
from the tower of babble
Strung up on the high wire
Another skyline drifter
an immaculate stranger
A legend for the wild west end
So when you've worked out
The problems and you've
worked out the angles
And you've worked out
what you wanted to do
Take a breath slide away quicksilver
The only style that you ever knew
That you ever knew
That you ever knew
Everyone's wanting a shortcut
to somewhere
Everyone's needing
someone to look up to
Everyone's looking for
somebody's hero
Are they nowhere to be found
