A.M.X. - Mount Shasta Lyrics

70 years
70 years
70 years
70 years ago
70 years
70 years
70 years
What did you know
Was 70 years ago?

1953, he was ready

William smear's flight tests were tomorrow
So he and sally got some well needed rest

The commies wouldn't even stand a chance
If they even were to even have a glance at this one
This one
This one

William smear was just a flight engineer
But for 50s america he was
Bloody paul revere!
What did we have to fear?

Over the cascade skies
Him and pilot garry guy flew so high
This was the single best day of him and
America's life

Not only was it plain
We built a super plane, lucky old willy
Would probably also get a wife

(Climbing)
(Climbing)
(Climbing)
(Climbing)

He'd needed to propose to sally perth
For as long as he was on this earth
He thought it wouldn't matter anyway
If he picked the same day
He thought this flight would be a piece of cake

No
It wasn't
It was a great mistake!

(Mistake)

Run, run, run, run now
Run, run, run, run now
Run, run, run, run now
Run out now
Run if you can
Get out if you can!

And so from the huge nuclear blast
Sally fled
Knowing her boyfriend
Must be dead
Sally sure cried
She cried all night

And so out of the plane wreck

William fell

Right into the pits and peaks

Of mountainous hell

Wait a second
Is that what he think it is?
A rescue helicopter
After 70 years?

Making his way down
Many times he's tried
Making his way down
But it's always seemed to be too f*cking high
Was william dreaming
Or was william dreaming
Or was he lucky?
A lucky man again
He's straight lucky
Is he dreaming?
He's making his way down
Oh man it's too f*cking high
Making his way down
Going on the helicopter
Making the way down
What's f*cking happening?
Everything's weird
This world is so weird
We're making our way down
Making our way down
The great great height
Never made your way down
He must be dreaming
You must be dreaming
What's f*cking happening?
Making your way down
Into the real world
The real world is f*cked up
What's f*cking happening?
What's f*cking happening?
You surely must be dreaming
You surely must be dreaming
What is happening?

Sally

Was this her?

Standing there
In the streets of
San- francisco
Now 98 years old
She's coming up now"You look awful cold"
She said"Well I've been on a mountain for 70 years"
He said
Sally laughed"You're a funny one she said""I am your one, I'm william"
He said
You wouldn't believe sally's face now
They got eloped in the care home that very evening
Life and the sun and everyone was beaming
William still couldn't believe he wasn't dreaming
This was perfect

But then

Nothing lasts forever

No matter how perfect
Nothing seems to stay
Sally died the very next day

William didn't have anything to say except"I don't have much time myself yet!"
He laughed and laughed and laughed
His chuckle turned into a tear
Everything was different and full of fear
(Full of fear)
(Full of fear)

But yet

Everything was constant
And so peaceful
He knew sally would always
Always be his dear
