Steam of Hercules Lyrics

We stand and watch the stars

The sky was filled with light

The trains below the airplanes go

Shuffling through the night

We made it to the ocean

The cliff at the end of the road

And burning off petroleum

To tug that heavy load

We sail against the storm

From mountains to the seas

The sandy beach collapsing from

The steam of Hercules

The steam of Hercules
