Lyrics:

I don't know, can't you see
I'm just passing through, fast as you
Don't ask me

Careering out of control
Disappearing down the black hole
Careering - the white man's soul
Stands stark naked in the floodlight glare
Stands stark raving on the strap
I've had the feeling that I've been there
But I can't quite believe it

I don't know, can't you see
I'm just passing through, fast as you
So don't ask me

Careering, simply day to day
Engineering everything I say
Careering for the work and the pay
I'm just a passenger passing through
I'm just an average chap
(We are normal)
If I said I hadn't got a clue
There'd still come the questions

I don't know, can't you see
I'm just another case of wasted space
So don't ask me

Careering, my apprenticeship
No nearer than my pension slip
Careering down the Cresta Run
I screw it up just like anyone
Careering - pointless anyway
To do it just for the work and the pay

Look here
I don't know, can't you see
I'm so near the end, get it straight, friend
Don't ask me
Don't ask me
Don't ask me
