The Shed (Subtle) Lyrics

Rainbow

Im like a freight train feelin no pain
I never turn back one track
Better step aside

Like a shotgun
Im really someone
Youll feel my heatwave
Wont save anyone near to me

Im steel
So come and try to bend me if you can, hah
I dont feel
Before you know it its over
Get out of my way
Im street walking, street walking
Night stalking, Im street walking

No reputation
You better quick run
Cause I got no time Ill climb all over you

You need a strong hand
To be a mean man
Youve got to think fast
Ill last longer than you could know

Im steel
So wont you come and try to bend me if you can
I dont feel
Before you know it its over
Out of my way
Im street walking

Hey, Im a wild cat
Dont need to prove that
Im always howlin prowlin
Stalkin my prey

It could be your night
To feel the dog bite
And hear the slashing, crashin
Tearin inside of you

Im steel
So come and try to break me if you can, no way
Like a wheel
About to roll you over
Get out of my way
Im street walkin, street walkin
No talkin, street walking
Night stalking, street walking
No talkin, Im street walkin, yeah
Street walkin, street walkin
Night stalking, street walking
