Beck – Painted Eyelids Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:56 Second

I wake up and look upon your painted eyelids
The world is your oyster
And the trashbags are your kids
The ceiling is invisible
Theres a bird sinkin through the sky
And every hour that passes
Is teachin me how to cry
cause its lonely here
In the ugly part of town
The buildings are all vacant
And the telephones are down

Theres a police siren singing
Like a tiger with no skin
The sewer drain is glowing
And I dont know what state Im in
And the river is on fire
Theres chemicals in the breeze

And all the roads are blocked off
cause theyre just too hard to see
So cancel my appointments
And set up a whole new show
cause Im in need of a good hot meal
And a life to call my own

So get me a plate of money
And get me a blanket and a chair
The limitations are limitless
Theyre floating through the air
Because its real and its true
The things I see in you
And theres nothing I wouldnt talk about
Youre the clearest dream that ever drifted by
