(einar) Last night
I woke up
Last night a good dream woke me up
(bjork)
I'm a T.V.
Transforming T.V.
(einar)
I was entertained and smiled
Jumped straight out of my bed
Humming this and that
And got myself a glass of water
And sat down in my favourite chair
And kept smiling but not for long
Because I realised that all my dreams
Are Nothing but the repetition
Of last week's television
I was no longer amused by my dream
(bjork)
I'm on my knees
Down on all four follows
Antennae
Thrust out through my forehead
(einar)
Like a lame turtle I paced the room
I was disturbed by this new found knowledge
I could only blame myself
And no one else
Tried to sleep again
No it can't
Not a dream, not again
But then remembered
That all my dreams are
Nothing but the simple repetition
Of last week's television
(bjork)
I've turned into a T.V.
My screen is smiling
To get your attention
I want you
I'm a T.V.
(einar)
So I jumped out of my bed
And into the TV room
And in my anger
Threw the TV set out the window
Regretted instantly
Because this was a brand new 20 inch
26 inch T.V. set
In my bed once again
Couldn't sleep
Because all my life
All my dreams had gone out the window
With this new T.V. set |
