in the jungle you must wait take a listen take it on vacation got the method got the means and she’s just standing cross-eyed like she’s heard this beat before when the sounds surround and the moon’s in town we’ll hang you from a riff and glide you right back down and thou shalt move around we ain’t new in town we’ll tell you when to turn it down this thickest mystery these frequencies are making light of me washing down on everything I see these frequencies are making light of me she’s a tigress she’s a freak come out from dark places to hear this six string speak thought that last time she heard enough did we misunderstand or are you waking up? take the high road we got your ride to speed right off the cliff & hear the air vibrating by she knows what I know straight from my genome bodies all around us tho

The sky is crying waterfalls in time with thunder rolls I inside my shotgun hall tell no time but analog And what will become of the trees? Cower back from the clouds Sing a prayer to the sun Let him know your days are dead and gone Nothing new, you’re not selling it Send for all your relatives Let them know the outside world has won This incessant fare-thee-well Spirals in a fairy tale for our little glowing cells From our nauseous atmosphere The sky is crying waterfalls To wash us back to analog And no one can freeze the debris Run for the hills Duck down from the shocks Go upstairs and reset all the clocks No horizon in sight Lock the cellar up tight Face the tunnel at the end of the light

gotta lady in the snowdrift, she stays up late for me gotta lady on the mountain, what can I say? gotta lady from Chicago, and you better not call it disco gotta lady lives downtown, what can I say? fading in the nighttime somehow I got summoned through the snow I’m inside the white lines don’t know much outside of that right now and I’m all out of patience and I’m feeling a change in my mind I’ve been grinding my way through the glaciers for you babe and you’re still cold headlights cut the snowfall little stars in hyperspace 4 me and I’ve been dry since last call lost and gone within my freezing whip could just let her fishtail meet my end in a fire on the ice though there’s miles left to go and I’ve got promises you know but not 2 you not anymore before I’d freeze 2 death 4 you but not today, not tonight, not tomorrow I got no time for that you can stay on your own, I’ll stay warm I won’t feel dead for you not like this, not like then, not like before
