Baby Dynamite (B. Hay) 1982 Cut

 


With a dream in her pocket, flightticket in hand, she’s going off to the crazy land
Green pastures like blankets unfold, out the door and down the hall


Crazy river with a cold shiver into deep in water she dives
She’s got herself involved and now it’s evolved into interstellar overdrive


Well I know she’s got a talent for finding me, when she happens to be in the vicinity
She’ll be on the phone when the dancin’s done, probably all alone


My baby dynamite, your lucky stars are out tonight
And your cards are on the table, all the odds are in your favour
Dynamite, heaven says you’re doin’ alright
With a heart that’s shaped like a diamond, you’ve been cut for the assignment


Don’t be a moth hidin’ pain when your wings go up in flame
Money is a rocket, blow it sky high, the more you get the more you fly
Green pastures that unfold, a future carved out of solid gold


Found in a river, hidin’ a treasure impossible to find
And your soul’s sold to the payroll while it’s tryin’ to have a good time
Stayin’ up, walkin’ around, talkin’ muscle and makin’ sounds


Like baby dynamite, your lucky stars are out tonight
And your cards are on the table, all the odds are in your favour
Dynamite, heaven says you’re doin’ alright
With a heart that’s shaped like a diamond, you’ve been cut for the assignment
