DIO - Strange Highways

It's a crazy world we live in
And I'm leaving it today
For another institution
We crazy people play
Every time I climb the mountain
And it turned into a hill
I promised me that I'd move on
And I will.

I, I, good for nothing
Going nowhere, so they say
Hey, someone give me blessings
For they say that I have sinned
That is when I crawl inside myself
And ride into the wind
On Strange Highways
On Strange Highways

Hey you! I want your number
Don't even wonder
We do things our way here
Questions
These are forbidden
We got no answers
Believe us anyway

So here is my confession:
It's the only broken rule
Sometimes I crawl inside of me
Where I can't be the fool
On Strange Highways
On Strange Highways

Oh

You can see the other side
And you shall come over
You can't leave the other side
If you say I will

Everytime I climb the mountain
And it turned into a hill
Well, I promised me
I'd disappear
And now I know I will

So, someone give me blessings
For the times you say I've sinned
So I can crawl inside myself
And ride into the wind
On Strange Highways
On Strange Highways

Questions
They're forbidden
Hey you, what's your number
Oh, we've got no answers
Don't you even wonder

Oh, Strange Highways
Ooh

@marshalrox

Nice one Sherlok, nobody ever said that Strange Highways is on Angry Machines. I only answered that it was Motörhead who opened the Angry Machines Tour with Dio.

[Danyerd]

I saw him on this tour, fantastic! I think Moterhead opened up.

@Danyerd

As I know, it was Motörhead on the Angry Machines Tour who opened up...

@pitstopchr

The World can be acidic, caustic, dangerous. Crawling inside yourself, is retreating from the horrific world into a world that is safer. Perhaps, even magical. A fantasy World that protects you from the shrieking horror that is reality.

@poevox

Well, He also said that "Rainbow Rising" was self indulgent bullshit... but I think it is one of the greatest rock albums of all time. His Lordship, Ronnie James was often down on Himself. Like most geniuses. Self doubt is a GOOD thing.

@KaboomPeoplez Well, hahahaha, If I need to study, then Wikipedia would be the very LAST place I would go.... When I got my dregrees from Princton University.... None of my professors would accept a paper written from WIKI..... It;s because anything on the Internet is a ridiculous piece of crap.... entertaining but... foolish

''BOOKS!" You brain-dead creatures! You are NOT of my species....

[praetorianus72]

Is Charles Manson a top one ? I don't know, but Dio is a top one.

[KaboomPeoplez]

@Paganguy1 I am sorry but it's really bothering me how horribly you type... It's Led Zeppelin not Led Zeplin, zoso, not zofo, And Volume IV...... You need to study a bit.. off to Wikipedia with you!!!
