Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - Babydoctor lyrics

rate me

(BABYDOCTOR - Three ways of staring at the sun)

Thank you Thank you Babydoctor

Babydoctor Thank you

And you count out the years you have been here

in this foreign land

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

Fourteen years Here Jalal Jalal Babydoctor

And you cound out the years you've been deprived

the use of your hand

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

Thirteen years Stroke

Straggering walker it takes you two lights

to cross the street

Traffic is backed-up here at the place

where cars and people meet

The very fast and the very slow

Beg for a ride and choke out a stream of words

as I drive

A mantra of thanks and counting out years that buries me alive

In the light of your humble and proud handful of

mispronounced words

And I fall to my knees in the shade of a tree and

cry Thank you

I look into the sun until it blinds me

I look into the sun until I go blind

I am raped by the light of the light until I am the

son of the sun

I am replaced

Hail and praise the all-seeing eye of Pelton & Crane

I open my mouth to the all-seeing eye of Pelton & Crane

Pelton & Crane I am replaced

Thank you
