I saw you in the film for just two seconds |
|
A documentary set in heaven |
|
Where the hipsters roll like children |
|
And the writers roll like dogs |
|
On rugs in beds and on stages |
|
And the singers hide behind the camera |
|
I saw you in the film where the children write on glass |
|
The sun came in like a pack of orange spaniels |
|
Through the window over the ledge |
|
Under the curtain on their bellies creeping and bending |
|
Balls of string coiled like springs hang down from the cymbal stands |
|
And in your hands I sleep just like a drummer |
|
I wake up with the thunder of your type-writer every night |
|
Well every day a prayer goes on its knees |
|
I will quit the white the wine and the weed |
|
Falls to its belly and crawls towards New York |
|
I saw you in the film for just two seconds |
|
On a subway car lifting like a question |
|
From Earth to the street to the bridge in the east |
|
Where the green man wears a hat |
|
The sun came in like a pack of orange spaniels |
|
Through the window over the ledge |
|
Under the curtain on their bellies creeping and bending |
|
Balls of string coiled like springs hang down from the cymbal stands |
|
And in your hands I sleep just like a drummer |
|
I wake up with the thunder / Just like a drummer |
|
Of your type-writer / Wake up with the thunder |
|
Just Like a drummer / Of your type-writer |
|
(x5) |
|
Just Like a drummer... / Just Like a drummer |
|
...every night. |
