Laurie Anderson My Eyes

Sometimes I wish I hadn't gotten that tattoo 
Sometimes I wish I'd married you 
One hundred fires One hundred days 
Sometimes I feel like a stranger 
Sometimes I tell lies (Whoa ho) 
Sometimes I act like a monkey 
 [bad word] the night 
And then kerjillions of stars start to shine 
And [bad word] go whizzing by 
And everything's shaking with a strange delight 
And here it is: the enormous night 
And oo my eyes 
They're lookin all around 
And oo my feet I'm upside down 
If I were the president 
If I were Queen for a day 
I'd give the ugly people all the money 
I'd re-write the Book of Love 
I'd make it funny 
Wheel of fortune 
Wheel of fame 
Two hundred forty million voices 
Two hundred forty million names 
And down in the ocean where nobody goes 
Some fish are fast 
Some are slow 
Some swim round the world 
Some hide below 
This is the ocean 
So deep So old. 
And then kerjillions of stars start to shine 
And [bad word] go whizzing by 
And everything's shaking with a strange delight 
And here it is: the enormous night 
And oo my eyes 
They're loo kin all around 
And oo my feet 
They've left the ground 
So cry me a river that leads to a road 
That turns into a highway that goes and goes 
And tangles in your memories 
So long So old.
