This Red Book - Pinback

And I don’t know how it goes

I’ve found another way though

Tells us all it knows

I’ve finally caught a deal

Your face above

Fades out all the reels

Your face above

Fazes all there is

Uh oh — There’s a spot in my eye

Uh oh — There’s a pill I have missed

The cloves of garlic flow

Like surfing down Pompeii

I’m messing up your show

You really should have guessed

Your face above

The only spark I need

Your face above

If I could reach your throat

Uh oh — I could strangle you all

Uh oh — Did I say that out loud?

Although it passed the mail

It blew a fuse and bailed

It’s too blue to be ours

And though it passed as red

It’s too far off and best guess

Has it soaked at home

Uh oh — There’s a spot in my eye

Uh oh — There’s a pill I have missed

And this little red book knows

It’s become my every day

I’ve taped over your show

You really should have guessed

Your face above

The only spark I need

Your face above

If I could reach your throat

Uh oh — I could strangle you all

Uh oh — Did I say that out loud?

And though the text was fed

Too obvious, they said

And moved it underground

Between the lines they met

Like sulphur burns they spread

Too angry to go out

Light my heard

Make me burn out

Like your name
