just because that you saw what you saw
doesn't mean that you know what your were looking at, son
you might remember a moment ago that the prize was a knife
but it's a bunny you've won
I tell myself I've gotta stop that
step back, breath in, count or somethin'
but there's a girl in my dreams that I have
that appears just to stab at the
oh, I can't say it now
welcome to night time
your human eyes don't work right now
mama gave you an old name
like a gold chain
a holy bible to ride the range
and in the sermon the praise sprang
from a quatrain
the fuckin' people were up for days
an invitation to the special language
tame, but in the dialect of ancient madness
aiming at the people of the country side
cause the city people up in the night
and they're singin'
chorus
there's a song in the sky like a spy plane
sippin' up the juices of the wandering mind
letting go of the day loaded up with regret
because it hadn't added up to a rewind yet
but you're gunnin' for the door in another hotel to get home again, weightless
count on what you've got, but then you still can't have it
turn on the light before the boogie man grab it
chorus
