Are you ready? 
Thumbs are up. 
One, two, three, four. 
Hey mister take a load off let me explain 
I'm not hidin' from you carry the blame 
Have yourself a good look from the 
Saskatoon plain 
Nothing's that clear in life 
I swear by the claim 
I rack my conscience for the will to achieve 
I could lie, die, cry and to this day not receive 
Cause I'm not steady like 
Eddy I may not smile for awhile 
Got a little of the devil and a mean streak 
Cause I hope to one day be complete 
In the meantime, yes 
We're just chippin' away? 
Eh, got 'ole 
Michael Hehir playin' on guitar 
Sometimes we go for months 
Not talk at all 
No crumblin' wall here 
The journey's come too far '
O rocket spaceship 
Take us to the stars 
They're building castles 
Straight up to the sky 
But the Empire 
States Still looks to me like it's high (I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile Got a little of the devil, and a mean streak) 
Cause I hope to one day be complete 
In the meantime, yes 
We're just chippin' away? 
O yea (I'm not steady like Eddy I may not smile for awhile) 
Got a little of the devil and a mean streak 
I hope to one day be complete, yea 
I'm not steady like 
Eddy, 'o no 
And I may not smile for awhile 
Got a little of the devil and a mean streak, yea 
I hope to one day be complete 
God I'm not steady like 
Eddy, 'o no 
I may not smile for awhile 
God bless the poor man, who knows what he seeks 
Cause I hope to one day be complete 
In the meantime, yes (yoa) 
We're just chippin' away 
O-o, (yoa) 
O-o O-o. "Ha, ha, I'm a bastard." [spoken]
