Cold Chisel – I Hit The Wall Lyrics

I remember blue lagoons
I remember padded rooms
And fat lines of pill heads tryin’ to
Load me up on sonic booms
And as the fuse of the night burned
I remember sucking down on a, a shotgun
Swinging a glass at a bartender
I hit the wall, and the wall won
I hit the wall, and the wall won
Next I know, I’m in a, a cell block
In just a cowboy’s helmet and a football sock
Two angels hanging up above
In uniforms and rubber gloves
I said, Darling ain’t nobody’s ever seen
The other side of where I’ve been
There’s a wall out there, and it’s no fun
I hit the wall, and the wall won
The sky’ll tell ya if it’s day or night
The Bible tells ya if it’s wrong or right
The wall is there to tell ya slow down, son
I hit the wall, and the wall won
He hit the wall, and the wall won
I remember a quick chase
I remember a blast of mace
A ward somewhere, an intern too far
Bored to care stitchin’ up my face
I said, Darling ain’t nobody’s ever seen
The other side of where I’ve been
There’s a wall out there, and it’s no fun
I hit the wall, and the wall won
I hit the wall, and the wall won
I hit the wall, and the wall won
There’s a wall out there saying, “Slow down, son”
I hit the wall, and the wall won
