Tractor

I woke up like this Like a little bug returning to its chrysalis Beginning of a different life Nothing much to carry but the rolling nights I'm a tractor on the motorway I'll be there tomorrow, if not today And there's loads of life in my body's way But I'll get there I stood up like this For a moment, I forgot what living is I saved a video The only one of you that I didn't know I'm a tractor on the motorway I'll be there tomorrow, if not today And there's loads of life in my body's way But I'll get there I'm a little snail on a train A moving body's a moving pain And none of this has a given name But I'll get there Funny what becomes awakened When we have whole lives to ponder Like your favorite sayings Written on your kitchen wall Like when meals become just meals, then something is dying Drink makes you feel the way you ought to feel without it The ship in the harbor is safe But that's not what a ship is for All of these words are written in me I will wear them all I'm a tractor on the motorway I'll be there tomorrow, if not today And there's loads of life in my body's way But I'll get there I'm a little snail on a train A moving body's a moving pain And none of this has a given name But we'll get there I'm a tractor on the motorway I'll be there tomorrow, if not today And there's loads of life in my body's way But I'll get there --- Tractor - Tom Rosenthal
