Lay Your Hands On Me / Shock the Monkey (Live) (исполнитель: Peter Gabriel)
Sat in the corner of the Garden Grill, with plastic flowers on the window sil No more miracles, loaves and fishes, been so busy with the washing of the dishes Reaction level's much too high - I can do without the stimuli I'm living way beyond my ways and means, living in the zone of the inbetweens I can see the flashes on the frozen ocean, static charge of the cold emotion Watched on by the distant eyes - watched on by the silent hidden spies But still the warmth flows through me And I sense you know me well No luck, no golden chances No mitigating circumstances now It's [bad word] sense There are no accidents around here I am willing - lay your hands on me I am ready - lay your hands on me I believe - lay your hands on me, over me Working in gardens, thornless roses, fat men play with their garden hoses Poolside laughter has a cynical bite, sausage speared by the [bad word] satellite I walk away from from light and sound, down stairways leading underground But still the warmth flows through me And I sense you know me well It's [bad word] sense There are no accidents around here I am willing - lay your hands on me I am ready - lay your hands on me I believe - lay your hands on me, over me over me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me, over me ........ Shock the monkey to life Shock the monkey to life Cover me when [bad word] Cover me through the fire Something knocked me out' the trees Now I'm on my knees Cover me, darling please Monkey, monkey, monkey Don't you know when you're going to shock the monkey Fox the fox Rat the rat You can ape the ape I know about that There is one thing you must be sure of I can't take any more Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey Monkey, monkey, monkey Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey Wheels keep turning Something's burning Don't like it but I guess I'm learning Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey Cover me, when I sleep Cover me, when I breathe You throw your pearls before the swine Make the monkey blind Cover me, darling please Monkey, monkey, monkey Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey Too much at stake Ground beneath me shake And the news is breaking Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey Shock the monkey Shock the monkey Shock the monkey to life
