Gasoline Songtext
von Jeff Zero and His Own Private Universe

It flows through the air and it floats on the water
It darkens the sky as it fouls the water
And the path that it takes through the earth to the water
Makes the time that it takes to arrive even shorter
Gasoline

It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
Children should be heard but never seen

It floats through the air and it floats on the water
It poisons the sky as it poisons the water
And it leads us along like a lamb to the slaughter
And I gave it to my son and he gave it to his daughter
Gasoline

It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
Children should be heard but never seen


The faith in the things we believe in is tattered
And the hope that we had for our lives has been shattered
And the air that we breathe makes us mad as a hatter
And the why and the where and the when doesn′t matter
Gasoline

It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
Children should be heard but never seen

It floats through the air and it floats on the water
It floats through the air and it floats on the water
And it leads us along like a lamb to the slaughter
And I gave it to my son and he gave it to his daughter
Gasoline

It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
It runs it runs it runs on gasoline
Children should be heard but never seen
It runs and runs and runs on gasoline

It runs on smoke and fire and gasoline
It runs on smoke and fire and gasoline
Children should be heard but never seen
