when the red light shines on the streets of hate where the devil dines who knows what he ate it s a simple thing trying to stay afloat the captain said without his boat some things are getting better other things a little worse it s a situation much like a curse it s the devil s sidewalk it s the devil s door i try to avoid it said the captain of the shore there s a garden growing and a million weeds with no way of knowing who has done which deed that s an honest tale said the helmsman to the mate about a woman delicious and a matter of fate big wheel s still rolling down on me one thing i can tell you is you got to be free john lennon said that and i believe in love i believe in action when push comes to shove who cares what you believe said the captain amazed if you stood in my shoes your eyes would be glazed  so my fair damsel won t you take your leave are you headed for the country where you wear the green sleeve and the children laugh and the old folks sing and the church bells toll for a miraculous thing where the big red furnace just glows and glows where the big heart beats where the big wheel rolls
