Beck Painted Eyelids song lyrics

I wake up and look

Upon your painted eyelids

The world is your oyster

And the trashbags are your kids

The ceiling is invisible

There's a bird sinkin' through the sky

And every hour that passes

Is teaching me how to cry

'Cause it's lonely here

In the ugly part of town

The buildings are all vacant

And the telephones are down

There's a police siren singin'

Like a tiger with no skin

The sewer drain is glowing

And I don't know what state I'm in

The river is on fire

There's chemicals and debris

And all the roads are blocked off

'Cause it's just too hard to see

So cancel my appointments

And set up a whole new show

'Cause I'm in need of a good hot meal

And a life to call my own

So give me a plate of money

Get me a blanket and a chair

Your limitations are limitless

They're floating through the air

Beause it's real and it's true

The things I see in you

And there's nothing I wouldn't talk about

You're the clearest dream that ever drifted by
