Razor’s Edge – Goanna

Got a letter from Davie just the other day
Living in Queensland was not OK
Said he can’t find the money just to pay the rent
And the food and the herb, well they’re just heaven sent

He’s been living on the razor’s edge
He trying to touch the sun
And he won’t fall for that same old trick again

And Cathy’s alright, she just gets lonely everyday
She’s living with a dream-world of yesterday
And there she is, but here she’ll stay
“Well it just never works out,” she said, “Anyway!”

She’s been living on the razor’s edge
And trying to touch the sun
She won’t fall for that same old trick again

Lulu’s too tired of living down beside Torquay
She’s gettin’ herself together financially
Says “One of these days I’m just gonna lie in the sun”
But right now I’m wondering does that day ever come?

She’s been living on the razor’s edge
And trying to touch the sun
And she won’t fall for that same old trick again

Got a letter from Davie just the other day
And the note just read, “Please come to Byron Bay”
Well the heart says “Go” and the head says “Stay”
And the big wheels just keep turning everyday

Don’t go living on a razor’s edge
Or trying to touch the sun
‘Cause you’ll just fall for that same old trick again
(That’s what they tell ya)

Well we’re living on a razor’s edge
And trying to touch the sun
And we won’t fall for that same old trick again

Yeah living on a razor’s edge
And trying to touch the sun
And we won’t fall for that same old trick again

(Oh no… Such a fine line… I was meanin’ to write)
