The Acoustic Motorbike
Luka Bloom

The day began with a rainbow in the sand

As I cycled into Kerry

Cattle grazing on a steep hillside

Looked well fed, well balanced

Close to the edge


Pedal on, pedal on, pedal on for miles

Pedal on

Pedal on, pedal on, pedal on for miles

Pedal on


I take a break, I close my eyes

And I'm happy as the dolphin

In a quiet spot talking to myself

Talking about the rain

Talking about the rain

All this rain


Pedal on

Pedal on, pedal on, pedal on for miles

Pedal on


You see whenever I'm alone

I tend to brood

But when I'm out on my bike

It's a different mood

I leave my brain at home

Get up on the sattle

No hanging around

I don't diddle-daddle


I work my legs

I pump my thights

Take in the scenery passing me by

The Kerry mountains or the Wicklow hills

The antidote to my emotional ills

A motion built upon human toil

Nuclear free needs no oil

But it makes me hot, makes me hard

I never thought I could have come this far

Through miles of mountains, valleys, streams

This is the right stuff filling my dreams

So come on, get up on your bike

Ah go on, get up on your bike


Pedal on

Pedal on, pedal on, pedal on for miles

Pedal on


Finally

With my face to that bitter wind

I bombed it into Killarney

Skin raw like a sushi dinner

And an appetite

That would eat the hind leg of the lamb of God

Even though you know

I wouldn't dream of doing such a thing

Then settle down for a quiet night

Think about what I've seen and done

And wonder


There's a reason for this

Now is the time

To speak of the problem troubling my mind

Sick of the traffic choking our towns

Freaking me out, bringing me down

Knock down houses, build more lanes

Once was a problem, now it's insane

My solution it's one that I like

It's Muddy

The Acoustic Motorbike

So come on, get up on your bike

Ah go on, get up on your bike


Pedal on

Pedal on, pedal on, pedal on for miles

Pedal on


Ah go on

Ah go on

Get up on your bike

Get up on your bike
