R.E.M. - The Wake-Up Bomb lyrics
[R.E.M. - The Wake-Up Bomb lyrics]
I look good and mean
I look good in metallic sick
Wraparound and blackout tease
I scud along the horizon
I drink some sweet tree tea
I get high in my low-ass boot-cut jean
I like being seen
I look good in my drink-eat no-sleep
Take-a leap longevity
I get high on my attitude, latitude, 1973
Oh, I'm in deep
My head's on fire and high esteem
Carry my dead bored, "been there
Done that" anything
Oh, wake-up bomb oh, wake-up bomb
Oh, wake-up bomb oh, wake-up bomb
My head's on fire and high esteem
Get drunk and sing along to Queen
Practice my T-Rex moves and make the scene
Carry my dead bored, "been there
Done that" anything
I had to knock a few buildings over
I make an ugly mess
I had to blow a gasket, drop transmission
I had to decompress
I had to write the great American novel
I had a neutron bomb
I had to teach the world to
Sing by the age of 21
I wake up (Wake up) , I wake up (Wake up)
I threw up when I saw what I'd done
Oh, wake-up bomb oh, wake-up bomb
My head's on fire and high esteem
Get drunk and sing along to Queen
Practice my T-Rex moves and make the scene
Oh, I'd rather be anywhere, doing anything
I've had enough, I've seen enough
I've had it all, i'm giving up
I won the race, I broke the
Cup, I drank it all, i spit it up
I've had enough, I've seen enough
I've had it all, i'm giving up
I won the race, I broke the
Cup, I drank it all, i spit it up
Yeah, atomic, supersonic, what a joke, oh
I'm dumb see you, d don't want to
Be you, you lunch meat, pond scum
My head's on fire in high esteem
Get drunk and sing along to Queen
Practice my T-Rex moves and make the scene
Yooh, I'd rather be anywhere doing anything
Yeah, I'd rather be anywhere doing anything
Yeah, I'd rather be anywhere doing anything
Yeah
