The lack of light, hollow sea,
Poison beaches, limousines
Toothless dentists, cops that kill...
My baby's got the lonesome lows,
Don't quite go away overnight;
Dr. Blind just prescribe the blue ones.
If the the dizzying highs don't subside overnight,
Dr. Blind, just prescribe the red ones.
Hard to hold, cold to touch,
Fall to pieces, treat the rush,
In hindsight, with prime time talk.
All your pain will end here.
Let the doctor soothe your brain, dear.
My baby's got the lonesome lows,
Don't quite go away overnight;
Dr. Blind just prescribe the blue ones.
If the the dizzying highs don't subside overnight,
Dr. Blind just prescribe the red ones.
Poison beaches, limousines
Toothless dentists, cops that kill...
My baby's got the lonesome lows,
Don't quite go away overnight;
Dr. Blind just prescribe the blue ones.
If the the dizzying highs don't subside overnight,
Dr. Blind, just prescribe the red ones.
Hard to hold, cold to touch,
Fall to pieces, treat the rush,
In hindsight, with prime time talk.
All your pain will end here.
Let the doctor soothe your brain, dear.
My baby's got the lonesome lows,
Don't quite go away overnight;
Dr. Blind just prescribe the blue ones.
If the the dizzying highs don't subside overnight,
Dr. Blind just prescribe the red ones.

Haven't heard this on RP in a long time.
Thanks for bringing it back! : )
I second that! I love this whole album. Metric gets a fair amount of play here, but it’s nice hearing songs from this as well.
Thanks for bringing it back! : )

Great song and the new Metric album sizzles. To bad RP didn't grab it, somebody should try to upload a tune or 2 from it.
I just came over to post something about how good the Metric album is. I know there are a couple of songs from it getting played it. Its an amazing record.
Just the sort of patients that psychoquacks like, at least going by this song which to my ears is all about the 'pharmaceutical cosh'. 8 from the Nottingham jury.
damn right.

Little Baby
Go to sleep
Fall into
a slumber Deep
Let me sing
this gentle song
you won't be
awake for long
for long, for long
It's a funny, thing you know
your conprehension's
very low
it doesn't matter
what I say
as long as it's
this gentle way
this way, this way
Hotel fires, exploding cabs
Michael Jackson
is a dad
Dirty bombs, bloody nose
Im not wearing any clothes
no clothes , no clothes
Now Im sure your fast
asleep
Dreaming dreams of lambs
and sheep
David Duchovny will
be out next
Mom and Dad now go have sex
and watch me, watch me......
Maybe that's why I like it. I'm odd that way. Among others.
