Laurie Anderson My Eyes Lyrics

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
Here come the night

And then kerjillions of stars
start to shine
And icy comets 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 icy comets 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 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.
