Laurie Anderson - Sharkey's Day lyrics

rate me

Sun's coming up. like a big bald head. poking up over the grocery store. it's sharkey's day. it's sharkey's day today. sharkey wakes up and sharkey says: there was this man... and there was this

...and if only I could remember these dreams... I know they're trying to tell me...something. ooooeee. strange dreams.(strange dreams). oh yeah. and sharkey says: I turn aroundit's fear. I tur

Und aagain and it's love. oh yeah. strange dreams. and the little girls sing:oooee sharkey. and the manager says: mr. sharkey? he's not at his desk right now. could I take a message? and the lit

Irls sing:oooeee sharkey. he's mister heartbreak. they sing: oooeee sharkey. yeah. he's mister heartbreak. and sharkey says: all of nature talks to me. if I could just figure out what it was try

O tell me. listen! trees are swinging in the breeze. they're talking to me. insects are rubbing their legs together. they're all talking. they're talking to me. and short animals- they're buckin

On their hind legs. talking.

Talking to me. hey! look out! bugs are crawling up my legs! you know? I'd rather see this on tv. tones it down. and sharkey says: I turn aroundit's fear. I turn around againand it's love. no

Knows me. nobody knows my name. and sharkey says: all night long I think of those little planes up there. flying around. uyou can't even see them. they're specks! and they're full of tiny people

Ng places. and sharkey says: you know? I bet they could all land on the head of a pin. and the little girls sing: ooooeee. sharkey! he's mister heartbreak. they sing: oooeee. that sharkey! he's

W dance on the edge of the lake. he's a whole landscape gone to seed. he's gone wild! he's screeching tires on an oil slick at midnight on the road to boston a long time ago. and sharkey says: l

! camera! action! timber! at the beginning of the moviethey know they have to find each other. but they ride off in opposite directions. sharkey says: I turn aroundit's fear. I turn around a

And it's love. nobody knows

Me. nobody knows my name. you know? they're growing mechanical trees. they grow to their full height. and then they chop themselves down. sharkey says: all of life comes from some strange lagoon

Rises upit bucks up to it's full height from a boggy swamp on a foggy night. it creeps into your house. it's life! it's life! I turn aroundit's fear. I turn around againand it's love. nobo

Ows me. nobody knows my name. deep in the heart of darkest america. home of the brave. ha! ha! ha! you've already paid for this. listen to my heart beat. and the little girls sing: oooeee sharke

's a slow dance on the edge of the lake. they sing:ooooeeee. sharkey. hee's mister heartbreak. paging mr. sharkey. white courtesy telephone please. and sharkey says: I turn aroundit's fear. i

Around againand it's love. and the little girls sing:ooooeee sharkey. yeah. on top of old smokey all covered with snow. that's where I wannathat's where I'm gonna that's where I'm gonna go.
