cannonball statman - sleepwalking into town lyrics

Loading...

thank you
you know my brain;
you’re the rain in this h+ll
that keeps me sane

you’re the fallen tree
in the empty woods
what gives way
to the wolves of this world?

know it’s been awhile, and i owe you;
you’re not around anymore

no, i didn’t mean to unfold you;
you’re not around anymore

behind your eyes, there’s n0body;
n0body’s home

thank you
you know my name;
the pain of these years
was not in vain

take me into your heart
show me the way;
your strange dreams
your usa
my friend works in the black paint factory
in the usa
she’s got a cubiclе of cement
and a faucet

turn on thе faucet
black paint runs through the veins of the great beast
into the can; fill up the can
pass it on down the line

repeat today:
yesterday, and every day
screamin’ “ooh ooh, baby, i wanna be
in the black paint factory; doesn’t everybody?”

in town, the fuzzy old couples come and go
screaming of marilyn monroe
and jfk and a ufo;
where they all come from, i don’t know!

my ex+co+conspirator in the corner
is a shadow of a man
of a shadow; talk to him
he is a shadow of a shadow of a shadow of a shadow
of a shadow
horse tranquilizer kissed the manager of our bar
so n0body’s getting paid; n0body’s getting paid

he’s sleepwalking into town from the mouth of a lion
and the traffic is picking up; he might not last much longer now

our sister is alive and well. i got the phone call;
she lives in the ecological district, in a jar

horse tranquillized her; she lost so much
the real stuff; what you can’t buy

she’s sleepwalking into town from the mouth of a lion
but the dragon is firing up; she might not last much longer now

but tonight, she’s alive and well. i got this phone call;
she lives in the ecological district, in a jar

horse tranquillized her; she lost so much
didn’t we all?

confined to your room;
your apartment complex
you’re complex;
what isn’t?
confined to your room;
your flat
you’re flat;
get sharp

confined to your room;
your bedroom
you’re dead;
get up

there’s this place, the neon clown
perched at the top of neon clown avenue
in the center of this old town;
the center of our hometown
i can no longer empathize with you

i wanted to meet you on your home court;
hot cement stood there to greet me
with the self+made men, who asked me what i’d give
to be a cell in the mouth of one of their miserable f+ck machines

in the neon clown
at the top of neon clown avenue
i catch up with an old friend
from the heart of our hometown;

millions of people stuck in that place
all stayin’ alive just to save face
see the bar staff, walls, and weirdos
and grab one last drink for the road

i can no longer empathize with you;
there’s no one who’d empathize with you
but i’ll hold you gently, as you fall
off the edge of neon clown avenue
