Feet on the Ground - Hothouse Flowers

This song talking about dealing with times of trouble

When your head seems to be starting to explode

And the weight on your back seems to be overloading

And you’re dragging your feet behind you

(Feet on the ground)

Yeah

Are we ready

Yeah, yeah

I’m talking about people living life each day

My kind of people trying to make their own way

I’m talking about living (living)

Living like you can

Like a common people

Like a common dance

I say, I say

I got my feet on the ground

Got my feet on the ground (buried in soul)

Got my feet on the ground

Got my feet on the ground

I ain’t talking about jet fighters

Flying low overhead

I ain’t talking about steel girders silver steel

Battle ships filling each others bellies full of lead

No I ain’t talking about war machines

Or games made to destroy

No I’m talking about human beings yeah

Like girls and boys

Like you and me

You may not all feel that much clearer but

It means love anyway

I say, I say, I say

I’ve got my feet on the ground

Got my feet on the ground

Got my feet on the ground

Got my feet on the ground
