Verse 1

I saw you in the film for just two seconds

a documentary set in heaven

where the hypsters roll like children

and the writers roll like dogs

Verse 2

on rugs in beds and on stages

and the singers hide behind the camera

I saw you in the film

where the children write on glass

Chorus

the sun came in like a pack of orange Spaniards

through the window

over the ledge under the curtain

on their bellies creeping an' bending

Verse 3

balls of string coiled like springs

hang down from the symbol stands

and in your hands I sleep just like a drummer

and wake up with the thunder... of your typewriter... every night

Verse 4

well everyday a prayer goes on its knees

I will quit the whites, the wine and the weed

falls to its belly

and crawls towards New York

Verse 5

I saw you in the film for just two seconds

on a subway car drifting like a question

from earth to the street to the bridge in the east

where the green man wears a hat

Chorus

the sun came in like a pack of orange Spaniards

through the window

over the ledge under the curtain

on their bellies creeping an' bending

balls of string coiled like springs

hang down from the symbol stands

and in your hands i sleep just like a drummer

(start muting and strum gently)

and wake up with the thunder

(just like a drummer)

of your typewriter

(wake up with the thunder)

just like a drummer

(of your typewriter)

i wake up with the thunder

(just like a drummer)

A [start "unmuting" and strum harder and harder]
