Alex Narveson As a diehard Cocteau Twins fan, and lover of quirky/unique covers, this was a must. Great stuff! Favorite track: Five Ten Fiftyfold.

I Don't Want to Get Over You 04:11
lyrics

I don't want to get over you I guess I could take a sleeping pill And sleep at will And not have to go through what I go through I guess I should take Prozac, right And just smile all night At somebody new Somebody not too bright But sweet and kind Who would try to get you off my mind I could leave this agony behind Which is just what I'd do If I wanted to But I don't want to get over you 'Cause I don't want to get over love I could listen to my therapist Pretend you don't exist And not have to dream of what I dream of I could listen to all my friends And go out again And pretend it's enough Or I could make a career of being blue I could dress in black and read Camus Smoke clove cigarettes and drink vermouth Like I was 17 That would be a scream But I don't want to get over you I don't want to get over you [repeat to end]

They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise They've been wasting most of their time Glorifying days long gone behind They've been wasting most their days In remembrance of ignorance oldest praise Tell me who of them will come to be? How many of them are you and me? Tell me who of them will come to be? How many of them are you and me? Dissipation Of race relations Consolation Segregation Dispensation, isolation Exploitation, mutilation Mutations, miscreation Confirmation to the evils of the world They've been spending most their lives Living in a future paradise They've been spending most their lives Living in a future paradise They've been looking in their minds For the day that sorrow's lost from time They keep telling of the day When the Savior of love will come to stay Tell me who of them will come to be? How many of them are you and me? Tell me who of them will come to be? How many of them are you and me? Proclamation Of race relations Consolation Integration (Proclamation Race relatiions Consolation Integration) Verification, revelation Acclamation, world salvation Vibrations, simulation Confirmation to the peace of the world They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise They've been spending most their lives Living in a future paradise They've been spending most their lives Living in a future paradise They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise (Spend most their lives) They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise (Spend most their lives) They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise (Spend most their lives) They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise (Spend most their lives)

I got a vision A teenage daughter Who’s growing up naked in the afternoon I know a brother Close to his mother Who stays out late in the evening time I keep repeating It takes a beating To grow up naked in the afternoon You are a cowboy if you wear those boots... You are a cowboy when you wear those boots Big time in the city Big time in the city Big time in the city Big time in the city I got a letter I read in the paper It said a man was shot to death It said a cow gave poison milk Big time in the city when you wear those boots I keep repeating It takes a beating To wear those boots in the afternoon You call it a question You call it a color Well I got a letter I think it’s a vision Big time in the city I got a vision I know a brother Close to his mother Close to his mother After the morning You’ve had your rest Time to go naked in the afternoon Take off your hat Take off your coat Big time in the city You’ve had your rest I got a letter You are a cowboy Read in the paper Big time in the city It’s time to go naked in the afternoon It’s time to go naked in the afternoon It’s time to go naked in the afternoon It’s time to go naked in the afternoon

My reflection, dirty mirror There's no connection to myself I'm your lover, I'm your zero I'm the face in your dreams of glass So save your prayers For when we're really gonna need 'em Throw out your cares and fly Wanna go for a ride? She's the one for me She's all I really need (oh yeah) She's the one for me Emptiness is loneliness And loneliness is cleanliness And cleanliness is godliness And God is empty just like me Intoxicated with the madness I'm in love with my sadness Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth I never let on that I was on a sinking ship I never let on that I was down You blame yourself For what you can't ignore You blame yourself for wanting more She's the one for me She's all I really need She's the one for me She's my one and only

They say there's a sun in the sky But me, I can't imagine why There might have been one Before you were gone But now all I see is the night So I don't believe in the sun How could it shine down on everyone? And never shine on me How could there be Such cruelty? The only sun I ever knew Was the beautiful one that was you Since you went away It's nighttime all day And it's usually raining too The only stars there really are Were shining in your eyes There is no sun except the one That never shone on other guys The moon to whom the poets croon Has given up and died Astronomy will have to be revised So I don't believe in the sun How could it shine down on everyone? And never shine on me How could there be Such cruelty?
