NoMeansNo - The Valley of the Blind lyrics

rate me

Nothing, nothing,

Nothing, nothing

Zero

They lied about the function of the eyes

About the walks and the doors and the mirrors inside

I saw a mushroom cloud, I took a rocket's ride

And the flash of the blast really opened my eyes

I went BOOM DOOM

I've been living in a dream

Now i'm washing my hands will they ever come clean

I went BOOM DOOM

I'm not naked and free

While the eyes of the blind are staring at me

My tribe is the indifferent kind

Stubmling round in the valley of the blind

What are you afraid you'll see

If you open your eyes and take a look at me

Tell me once, tell me fifteen times

Just give me my cue and I remember my lines

‚Cause i'm quick, I'm fast and I aim to please

Tell me what you want and that's what i'll be

I went BOOM DOOM

And I heard someone laugh

„Get your ass of the floor“, as they kicked in the door

I went BOOM DOOM

We're dying like flies

But i'm hypnotyzed by the look in your eyes

My tribe is the indifferent kind

Stubmling round in the valley of the blind

What are you afraid you'll see

If you open your eyes and take a look at me

Won't you look at me

Don't you want to see

What you made of me

Look at me

Why don't you look at me

You'll see

Nothing, nothing,

Nothing, nothing

I must have been mean or bad

I must have spoke out of turn or must have made somebody mad

Although I have never been a dominant force

I just slide along, take the easiest course

But there is nothing I wouldn‘ do

To make you see, to get through to you

I haven't crawled through a jungle of lies just to be

hypnotized by the look in your eyes

I went BOOM DOOM

All is not what is seems

I'm a fool, I've been had, I've been living in a dream

I went BOOM DOOM

I'm not naked and free

While the eyes of the blind are staring at me

My tribe is the indifferent kind

Stubmling round in the valley of the blind

What are you afraid you'll see

If you open your eyes and take a look at me

Won't you look at me

Don't you want to see

What you made of me

Look at me

Why don't you look at me

You'll see

Nothing, nothing,

Nothing, nothing
