Rock Bottom - UFO

Artist: UFO

Year: 1974
Album: Phenomenon

Blues based space rock.

Lyrics:
Seventeen, and nature's queen
Oh you know what I mean
Twenty one, I know that you can
See the numbers run
Now you look so peaceful
Lyin' there asleep
With the wings of god above you
Before the spirits meet

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Shadow earth is closin' in
Above the lamps in your street
Lucifer goes walkin'
Down for you to meet
Minutes pass so slowly by
The hands on your clock
Heaven's don't just open
When you can knock

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Wall of darkness closin' in
Will the light reveal your soul
Just one sweet kiss
On your clay cold lips
Long, long sleep you'll never know
Where do we go, where do we go
Where do we go from here

Seventeen, and nature's queen
Oh you know what I mean
Twenty one, I know that you can
See the numbers run
Now you look so peaceful
Lyin' there asleep
With the wings of god above you
Before the spirits meet

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
