Phoenix

Johnny L.

Here we go, here we go, here we go again

The roller coaster’s at the top of the hill

I feel the buzz and the rush of adrenaline

It’s always fun until I get the bill

The only thing that’s constant here

Is the change in the atmosphere

(I do what I can)

So if you look in my direction

Here’s a hint at what you’ll find

It’s just another resurrection -

Far short of divine

Cause I’m a phoenix from the ashes

And I’m a moth into the flame

And when the revolution passes

The two things the same

Are fortune and fame

Hip hooray for the new generation

Let’s wish them well because it will not last

Only seconds from the realization

It’s all been done many times in the past

I’ve seen a dozen come and go

But not one can steal this show

(I do what I can)

So if you look in my direction

Here’s a hint at what you’ll find

It’s just another resurrection -

Far short of divine

Cause I’m a phoenix from the ashes

And I’m a moth into the flame

And when the revolution passes

The two things the same

Are fortune and fame

Once again the coast is clear

I pop the clutch and grind the gears

Another lifetime in another year

The only thing that’s constant here

Is the change in the atmosphere

(I do what I can)
