x4
6/8 TIME):
Now it's day, I've been trying to get that taste off my tongue
I was dreaming of just you, now our cereal, it is warm.
Attractive day in the rubble of the night from before.
Now I can't walk in a vacuum! I feel ugly, I feel my pores.
It's the trees of this day that I do battle with for the light,
Then I start to feel tragic, people greet me, I'm polite.
"What's the day?"
"What's you doin'?"
"How's your mood?"
"How's that song?"
Man it passes right by me, it's behind me, now it's gone
And I can't lift you up, mind is tired
Oh it's family beaches that I desire
A sacred night, we'll watch the fireworks
The frightened babies poo
They've got two flashing eyes and they're colored why
They make me feel that I'm only all I see sometimes!
MAIN PROGRESSION x3
Third time, land on the G and change to 4/4 time.
4/4 TIME)
I've been eatin' with a good friend who said
"A genie made me out of the earth's skin"
But in spite of her she is my birth kin
She spits me out in her surly blood rivers
All the people life lurkin'
In dominions of a hot Turk dish
If the elephants be reaching for our purses
Then meet me after the world with the shivers
REPEAT 3 TIMES, THEN:
4/4 TIME)
"What's the day?"
"What's you doin'?"
"How's your food?"
"How's that song?"
Man it passes right by me, it's behind me, now it's gone
And I can't lift you up cause mind is tired
It's family beaches that I desire
A sacred night, we'll watch the fireworks
They frightened the babies and you know
THEY'VE GOT TWO flashing eyes and if they're colored why
They make me feel that you're only what I see sometimes!
There you go.
I understand if you want to substitute the D6 for a normal D, I just like it is all.
