Speechless - laurie anderson[00:00:00]
It was August Summer of `82 [00:00:13]
You had that rusty old car[00:00:22]
And me I had nothing better to do [00:00:25]
You picked me up We hit the road Baby me and you [00:00:33]
We shot out of town drivin` fast and hard [00:00:43]
Leaving our greasy skid marks in people`s back yards [00:00:50]
We were goin` nowhere Just driving around [00:00:58]
We were goin` in circles And me I was just hanging on [00:01:07]
Like in that Annie Dillard book[00:01:20]
Where she sees that eagle with the skull of a weasel[00:01:23]
Hanging from its neck[00:01:28]
And here`s how it happened listen [00:01:29]
Eagle bites the weasel Weasel bites back [00:01:32]
They fly up to nowhere Weasel keeps hangin` on [00:01:46]
Together forever [00:01:58]
We were goin` nowhere Just driving around [00:02:07]
You did all the talking and me I didn`t make a sound[00:02:14]
If I open my mouth now I`ll fall to the ground[00:02:23]
If I could open my mouth There`s so much I would say [00:02:32]
Like I can never be honest Like I`m in it for the thrill [00:02:38]
Like I never loved anyone And I never will [00:02:44]
Eagle bites the weasel Weasel bites back [00:02:52]
They fly up to nowhere Weasel keeps hangin` on [00:03:04]
Together forever [00:03:16]
I remember that old coat my grandma used to wear[00:03:23]
Made of weasels biting each other`s tails[00:03:34]
A vicious circle An endless ride [00:03:41]
On the back of an old woman [00:03:48]
Eagle bites the weasel Weasel bites back [00:03:52]
They fly up to nowhere Weasel keeps hangin` on [00:04:04]
Together forever [00:04:16]
And me I`m goin` in circles I`m circling around [00:04:29]
And if I open my mouth now I`ll fall to the ground[00:04:43]
