Uphill - CAN

He was rushing round the Greyhound

As he changed his velvet gown

Turning over in his graveyard

He could not hear another sound

He kept pushing ‘cross the wayside

As his ever-ringing eye

But his mellow mind kept ringing

As he changed into a spy

Kept on moving up the hill now

Moving, up, up, up, now slow

As he changed his years to low gear

He could hear the velvet slow

Changing uphill as he rose now

Changing uphill as he rose

Changing uphill as he rose now

Changing uphill as he rose

Keep on moving sideways (lane-ger?)

As he felt the velvet touch

Crying for his grandmother

As he came upon his crush

Calling, changing, going uphill

Calling, changing, going uphill

Calling, changing, going uphill

Calling, changing, going uphill

As he flashed across the streambed

And this period came to a stop

He tried putting his car in reverse

As he changed his hot rod car

He just kept on changing, going uphill

He’ll never stop, he’ll never stop ooh

As his flash lights changed to beacons

And his heart name changed to gold

He came running ‘cross the highway

As he tried to back off slow

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

As his feeble heart came inside

And his night changed into day

He couldn’t take the melted prism

As he turned his heart away

He was changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Velvet night changed into sun

As the crystal lakes could sing

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

Changing uphill, going slowly

As he came across the top, babe

Crying for his dynamite

He kept pushing through the sweet dreams

As he moved across outside

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly

As he crossed across the sun

Dynamite couldn’t brought him down

But his heart lingered no longer

As his feet could not touch the ground

He was changing slowly, going uphill

He was changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

As the night turned silver pale

And the green land took sail above

Changes gears into reverse

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, going uphill

Changing slowly, go-

As the clouds refused to see
