Painted Eyelids — текст песни (Beck)

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

Cuz 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

Cuz theyre just too hard to see

So cancel my appointments

And set up a whole new show

Cuz 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
