One night, the kid cut off his right arm
In a bid to save some power
He got fifty thousand watts
In a big acoustic tower
Security's so tight tonight
Oh we're waiting for a tussle
You've gotta keep those backstage passes
'Cause the promoter had the muscle

It goes, it goes, it goes, so it goes
But where it's goin', no one knows
It goes, it goes, it goes, so it goes
But where it's goin', no one knows

In the twin towers, sit our head of nations
Worthy men from Spain to Siam
All day discussions with the Russians
But they still went ahead and vetoed the plan
Up jumped the U.S. representative
He's the one with the tired eyes
747 for the midnight condition
Flyin' back from a peace keepin' mission

It goes, it goes, it goes, so it goes
But where it's goin', no one knows
It goes, it goes, it goes, so it goes
But where it's goin', no one knows

In the air there's absolution, in the wake of a snaky Persian
On his arm there's a skin tight version
Wonder why she applies she's a-hissin'

It goes, it goes, it goes, so it goes
But where it's goin', no one knows
It goes, it goes, it goes, so it goes
But where it's goin', no one knows

I need my home
But where it's goin', no one knows
I need my home

But where it's goin', I don't know
