Sonic Youth - Karen Revisited lyrics

rate me

[Lee] heard yr name the other day it's been a long long time ancient history some would say another state of mind you smell of memory felt tip'd electric childe she takes a plastic pill/she plays the weatherman she screams ‘religion kills more than it save ya, man' she painted filigrees/she was the acid queen she claims society is just a fever dream now you live in the trees and salty seas tripping out in the blue skies you shut the door on everything too busy getting high and me, just another dream theory lost inside yr eyes she's not in yr history books/lost her mind, kept her looks down beneath the radar screen/ she's lit up like gasoline been thru a million kix/looking for the one that sticks never would've known it then/i might not see her again top hat and tails for thrills red lips and famous hands sidelong and glancing still in tiny dancer land we kissed/time slipped hard edged/tight lipped come home/sometime ask me/if i care for karen miss communication karen stuck in isolation karen karen
