1492 |
| I’m a Russian Jew American |
| Impersonating African Jamaican What I want to be is an Indian |
| I’m gonna be a cowboy in the end |
| I guess I bought a gun |
| because it impresses all the litle girls I see |
| and then they all wanna sleep with me Oh whre did we disappear |
| into the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end |
| Where these people who impersonate our friends |
| Say come again come again come again |
| Into the dark Italian underground |
| with disco lights and disco sounds and skinny |
| girls who drink champagne |
| Then they take me on their knees again, |
| and pull me up and out the door |
| past railway cars and tranny-whores |
| And mornings spreading out across the feathered thighs of angels |
| Oh were did we disappear to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end |
| Will they try to get you out to pull you in And all these people, they’ve been? |
| come again |
| In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue |
| In 1493 he came home across the deep blue sea |
| In 1494 he did it with the girl next door |
| In 1495 he barely made it out alive |
| In 1964 ??? |
| busting out the door |
| In 1970 some people got their hands on me Now I am the king of everything |
| I am the king of nothing now |
| I am the king of everything |
| I am the king of nothing |
| Oh where did we disappear |
| to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end Where these |
| people |
| who impersonate our friends Say come again come again come |
| come again Oh where did we disappear |
| to the silence that surrounds us and then drowns us in the end When they try to push you out to get you in and all these people who impersonate our friends Say come again come again come |
| come again come again come again |
