Laurie Anderson - Frames for the Pictures lyrics
[Laurie Anderson - Frames for the Pictures lyrics]
I had this dreamand, in it
My mother was sitting there
Cutting out pictures
Of hamsters from magazines in some of
The pictures, the hamsters are pets
And some are just scenes where hamsters
Are somewhere in the background she's
Got a whole pile of these cedar
Chips- you know the kind
The kind from the bottoms of hamster
Cages she's gluing them into the
Frames for the pictures
She glues them together, and
Frames the pictures
And then hangs them over the
Fireplace -that's more or less
Her method and suddenly I realize that this
Is just her way of suggesting to
Me that I should become a structuralist
Filmmaker -which I had, you know
Planned to do anyway
My mother was sitting there
Cutting out pictures
Of hamsters from magazines in some of
The pictures, the hamsters are pets
And some are just scenes where hamsters
Are somewhere in the background she's
Got a whole pile of these cedar
Chips- you know the kind
The kind from the bottoms of hamster
Cages she's gluing them into the
Frames for the pictures
She glues them together, and
Frames the pictures
And then hangs them over the
Fireplace -that's more or less
Her method and suddenly I realize that this
Is just her way of suggesting to
Me that I should become a structuralist
Filmmaker -which I had, you know
Planned to do anyway
