max tundra - lights 2023 lyrics
[verse 1]
i used to drive for a living
hairy arms fed the wheel through my palms
twitching feet made patterns on pedals
reflexes honed in a twice+failed test
the pay man lance kept me elastic bound
in the echelons of west one
slim chance of the odd long journey
kept me clinging to him for too long
locked in a car all day
came home and worked on ‘children at play’
i had no deal then but i had fifty blank tapes then in a bag waiting
held out for beckett’s bunch as the ltj rеjection letter flеw in
i knew it wouldn’t be long before i wrote ‘carbon cones’
[chorus]
only last week, i noticed that the colors of the lights in my studio
are the same as the ones you conjure in my mind
yellow and green, green pea green
cherry red and red and blue
when my amiga reads from a disk
you know the green fills the room
and your long summer dress fills my mind
[verse 2]
my other jobs were none to speak of
make a coffee for the man in avid one
drop these lunches off then take
this betacam to a place on dean street
most posts seemed to involve the lifting of heavy boxes
be they crates of soft drink or hyper+boring finance files
a man of such small frame as i broke into several sweats a day
whilst failing to procure even the hint of any musculature improvement
heavy+lifting days are in the bin now
but i still dip into tempting
wearing the odd suit, attending the odd interview
subsidizing the drum programming you hear today
[chorus]
only last week i noticed that the colours of the lights in my studio
are the same as the ones you conjure in my mind
yellow and green, green pea green
cherry red and red and blue
just yesterday
i was woken by a flashing of a light from my studio
confirming that this time stretch was complete
[outro]
only last week, i noticed that the colours of the lights in my studio
are the same as the ones you conjure in my mind
