Laurie Anderson - Structuralist Filmmaking lyrics
[Laurie Anderson - Structuralist Filmmaking lyrics]
I had this dream and in it
My mother was just sitting there
Cutting out pictures of
Hampsters from magazines
And some of the pictures
Of hamsters and pests
Some of the scenes were hamsters and
Some were in the background
She's got a whole pile of
These, these cedar chips, you know the kind
The kind from the bottoms of
Hamsters from hamster cages
She's gluing them onto 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
Then suddenly I realise that this 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 just sitting there
Cutting out pictures of
Hampsters from magazines
And some of the pictures
Of hamsters and pests
Some of the scenes were hamsters and
Some were in the background
She's got a whole pile of
These, these cedar chips, you know the kind
The kind from the bottoms of
Hamsters from hamster cages
She's gluing them onto 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
Then suddenly I realise that this just
Her way of suggesting to me
That I should become
A Structuralist Filmmaker
Which I had you know planned to do anyway
