Stand back
Said stand back

What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet
Theyre on to something, picking up
Picking up this heat, this heat

Give me steam
And how you feel can make it real
Real as anything youve seen
Get a life with the dreamers dream

You know your culture from your trash
You know your plastic from your cash
When I lose sight of the track
You know the way back
But I know you

You know your stripper from your paint
You know your sinner from your saint
Whenever heavens doors are shut
You kick them open, but
I know you

Give me steam
And how you feel can make it real
Real as any place youve been
Get a life with the dreamers dream

Stand back
Said stand back
Cant you see Ive lost control?
I'm getting indiscreet
Youre moving in so close til Im picking up
Picking up this heat, this heat

You know your green from your red
You know the quick from the dead
So much better than the rest
You think youve been blessed
But I know you

You know your leather from your snake
You know the throttle from the brake
You know your straight line from a curve
Youve got a lot of nerve
But I know you

Everybody nosedive
Hold your breath, count to five
Backslap, boobytrap
Cover it up in bubblewrap
Room shake, earthquake
Find a way to stay awake
Its gonna blow, its gonna break
This is more than I can take

Oh yeah, I need steam
Feel the steam around me
Ah youre turning up the heat
When I start to dream aloud
til youre movin hands and feet
Wont you step into this cloud of steam
This steam

Help me yeah
Ready to steam out the log jam
Stir crazy from the freezer to the boil
Waters bubbling, it's bubbling
Bubbling bubbling bubbling bubbling
Life [bad word] to the boil
Gimme steam, lady
Gimme the steam around me now
On a [bad word] alive
Said gimme some steam
