Bat Out of Basildon - The Tangent[00:00:00]

He's only as old as his helmet and no one can see his grey hair[00:00:36]

Through the dark tinted perspex sun visor as he breathes in the open freeway air[00:00:44]

There's a two hour queue out of Stansted and an age on the M25[00:00:51]

A line of artics that stretches to Yorkshire[00:01:00]

But this guy's still glad to be alive[00:01:04]

Half his world in his topcase the other half in his sack[00:01:16]

As he overtakes the juggernauts of his past[00:01:24]

This guy's never looking back[00:01:27]

He lives his life on the white lines[00:01:32]

He's the spirit of old 66[00:01:36]

Three hundred kilos of man and machine still[00:01:40]

Still getting their kicks[00:01:45]

He's still dreaming of summers on the open road[00:01:47]

The path that he's chosen is no more than he's owed[00:01:52]

And his freedom comes in horsepower it seems[00:01:55]

The apehanger bars seem to suit him so well[00:02:04]

He's an easy rider[00:02:07]

He's a bat out of hell[00:02:10]

He's the leader of the pack[00:02:11]

He's an angel in the raw[00:02:13]

But no-one writes those biker songs no more[00:02:20]

Basildon glows on the distant horizon like he's coming down to LA[00:02:40]

The rain's sheeting in from imagined mountains but while the traffic works he plays[00:02:48]

He's only as old as his helmet and he only got it last week[00:03:12]

And the exhaust sounds like a f**king rock band[00:03:20]

And the cops only see a silver streak[00:03:23]

He's got born to be wild on the walkman[00:03:27]

And the devil tattoo doesn't show[00:03:32]

But the guy from the chip shop down your street[00:03:35]

Is a heavy metal God of the road[00:03:39]

He's still dreaming of summers on the open road[00:03:43]

The path that he's chosen is no more than he's owed[00:03:48]

And his freedom comes in horsepower it seems[00:03:51]

The apehanger bars seem to suit him so well[00:04:00]

He's an easy rider[00:04:03]

He's a bat out of hell[00:04:06]

He's the leader of the pack[00:04:07]

He's an angel in the raw[00:04:09]

But no-one writes those biker songs no more[00:04:15]

But no-one writes those biker songs no more[00:04:24]

He's still dreaming of summers on the open road[00:04:43]

The path that he's chosen is no more than he's owed[00:04:48]

And his freedom comes in horsepower it seems[00:04:52]

The apehanger bars seem to suit him so well[00:05:00]

He's an easy rider[00:05:03]

He's a bat out of hell[00:05:06]

He's the leader of the pack[00:05:08]

He's an angel in the raw[00:05:09]

And the sun has just set behind the Rockies tonight[00:05:16]

On the roads by the Med will the water shines bright[00:05:19]

There's chrome by the roadhouses and dark-eyed chicks at the bar[00:05:23]

There's camp fires burning and there's bands on the stage[00:05:31]
