Notes:
In his ny concert with the episodes, gp says:
Heres a song I wrote in 1978 when I was doing the squeezing
Out sparks stuff [applause] but its not, uh,
Its not on that record [laughter] because it really wasnt
Good enough. but I gave it to dave edmunds who turned it into
Something decent. a little thing called crawling from the wreckage.
In brisbane (australia) at the gig in van goghs earlobe
He also said and its kept me in swimming pools ever since.

Corrections or comments to: robert whyte: rob@toadshow.com.au
Got out really early from the factory
Drivin like a nut in the rain
Dont think I was acting so hysterically
But I didnt see a thing until it came
Met the dumb suburbos in the takeaway
Beating up the chinee at the counter
I put a few inside me at the end of the day
I took out my revenge on the revolution counter
Chorus
Crawlin from the wreckage, crawlin from the wreckage
Bits of me are scattered in the trees and on the hedges
Crawlin from the wreckage, crawlin from the wreckage
And into a brand new car
In walks bud with his exploding nose
Hed been givin it maximum today
Shouted how the devil you in trouble I suppose?
But all you ever do is run away.
Gunned up the motor into hyperdrive
I didnt want to take any of that
Dont get bright ideas about suicide
Cos all I ever hear is zoom bang bang bang
Chorus (var)
Crawlin from the wreckage, crawlin from the wreckage
Youd think by now at least that half my brain would get the message
Crawlin from the wreckage, crawlin from the wreckage
Into a brand new car
(shake it mitch!) instrumental verse
Well well nothing seem to happen that aint happened before
I see it all through flashes of depression
Drop my drink and hit some people running for the door
I gotta make some kind of impression
Cos when Im disconnected from the driving wheel
Im only half the man that I should be
Metal hitting metal is all I feel
But everythings as good as it possibly could be
Repeat chorus (var) then repeat chorus one then well, well
Crawlin from the wreckage, crawlin from the wreckage,
Crawlin from the wreckage, crawlin from the wreckage,
Crawlin from the wreckage, crawlin from the wreckage,
Variations
The marys version on piss and vinegar has it thus:

Crawling from the wreckage
( g. parker )
Got out really early from the factory
Driving like a nut in the rain
Dont think I was acting so hysterically
But I didnt see a thing until it came
Man the drunks were verbal in the takeaway
Beating up the chinese at the counter
I put a few inside me
At the end of the day
I took out my revenge
On the revolution counter
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Youd think by now at least that
Half my brain would get the message
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car
In walks bud with his exploding nose
Hed been giving it maximum today
He shouted how the devil
You in trouble I suppose
But all you ever do is run away
Turned up the motor into hyper-drive
I wasnt gonna take any of that
Dont get bright ideas about a suicide
cause all I ever hear
Is zoom wam bam past me
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Youd think by now at least that
Half my brain would get the message
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car
Crawling, crawling, crawling from the wreckage
Crawling, crawling, crawling from the wreckage
Crawling, crawling, crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Bits of me are scattered
In the trees and in the hedges
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car
Nothing seem to happen that aint happened before
I see it all through flashes of depression
I dry up my drink and hear
People running for the door
God I make some kind of impression
cause when Im disconnected from the driving wheel
Im only half the man I should be
But metal hitting metal isnt all I feel
And everything is good as
It possible could be
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Youd think by now at least that
Half my brain would get the message
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Bits of me are scattered
In the trees and in the hedges
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car
Crawling from the wreckage
