Laurie Anderson - Let X = X lyrics

I met this guy
And he looked like might have been
A hat check clerk at an ice rink
Which, in fact, he turned out to be
And I said oh boy
Right again

Let X equal X you know, it could be you
It's a sky-blue sky
The satellites are out tonight let X equal X
You know, I could write a book
And this book would be thick
Enough to stun an ox
'cause, I can see the future
And it's a place
About seventy miles east of here
Where it's lighter linger on over here
Got the time? Let X equal X

I got this postcard and it read, it said
Dear Amigo, dear Partner
Listen, uh, I just want to say thanks so
Thanks thanks for all the presents
Thanks for introducing me to the Chief
Thanks for putting on the feedbag
Thanks for going all out
Thanks for showing me your Swiss Army knife
Oh and uh
Thanks for letting me autograph your cast
Hug and kisses xXXX0000

Oh yeah, PS i, I feel, feel like, I
Am in a burning building, and I gotta go
Cause, I, I feel, feel like, I am
In a burning building and I gotta go
