Laurie Anderson

I don't know about your dreams
But mine are sort of hackneyed.
Same thin
night after night.
Just...repetitive.
And the color is really bad -
And the themes are just infantile.
And you always get what you want -
And that's just not the way life is.

First National Bank? I love it!
New hat? Forget it!
Moby Dick? Never read it!

I came home today
and both our cars were gone.
And there were all these new pink
Flamingoes arranged in star patterns
All over the lawn.
Then I went into the kitchen
And it looked like a tornado had it.
And then I realized I was in the wrong house.

Last night I had that dream again.
I dreamed I had to take a test
In a Dairy Queen on another planet.
And then I lokked around
And there was this woman.
And she was making it all up.
She was writing it all down.

And she was laughing.
She was laughing her head off.
And I said: Hey!
Give me that pen!

I turned the corner in Soho today and someone
Looked right at me and said: Oh no!
Another Laurie Anderson clone!
And I said: Loook at me! Loook at me! Loook at me!
Loook at me! Loook at me! Loook at me! Loook at me!
Loook at me! Loook at me! Loook at me! Loook at me!

Standby. You're on the air. Buenos noches Senores y Senoras. Bienvenidos. La primera pregunta es: Que es mas macho, pineapple o knife? Well, let's see. My guess is that a pineapple is more macho than a knife. Si! Correcto! Pineapple es mas macho que knife. La segunda pregunta es: Que es mas macho, lightbulb o schoolbus? Uh, lightbulb? No! Lo siento, Schoolbus es mas macho que lightbulb. Gracias. And we'll be back in un momento. Well I had a dream and in it I went to a little town And all the girls in town were named Betty. And they were singing: Doo doo doo doo doo. Doo doo doo doo doo. Ah desire! It's cold as ice And then it's hot as fire. Ah desire! First it's red And then it's blue. And everytime I see an iceberg It reminds me of you. Doo doo doo doo doo. Doo doo doo doo doo. Que es mas macho iceberg or volcano? Get the blanket from the bedroom We can go walking once again. Down in the bayou Where our sweet love first began. I'm thinking back to when I was a child - Way back to when I was a tot. When I was
an embryo - A tiny speck. Just a dot. When I was a Hershey bar - In my father's back pocket. Hey look! Over there! It's Frank Sinatra Sitting in a chair. And he's blowing Perfect smoke rings Up into the air. And he's singing: Smoke makes a staircase for you To descend. So rare. Ah desire! Ah desire! Ah desire! So random So rare And everytime I see those smoke rings I think you're there. Que es mas macho staircase o smoke rings? Get the blanket from the bedroom We can go walking once again. Down in the boondocks Where our sweet love first began. Ooo I'm gonna follow you. Out in the swamps and into town. Down under the boardwalk Track you down. Doo doo doo doo doo. Doo doo doo doo doo. Doo doo doo doo doo. Doo doo doo doo doo.
