Something For Kate - Deep Sea Divers lyrics
[Something For Kate - Deep Sea Divers lyrics]
Woken by a whale song, by a siren blast
All those deep sea divers of Brooklyn
The phantom buses swimming past
When the morning is rolled out onto the set
I see two crows sharin' a cigarette
While you're waitin' by the catering truck
Parked outside of yesterday's news
For the starlet, for the stuntman
For some sign of a camera crew
Then I swear I overhear somebody say
"well the sky in here looks so blue today"
I could drop all my lines
I could throw my ropes into the water
I could change my mind now today
Looks the same as tomorrow
If I could kill only the time
That truly deserves to die, then so will I
I see jet streams, trails of small talk
Phosphorescence on an ocean of air
And I move slowly along the bottom
Past old folks in their folding chairs
Then Yolanda asks if I got any change
Well that's exactly what he
What she said yesterday
And I gave her all I had in my
Pockets just 'cause she's a real swell guy
And she never ever breaks character
Crashes my scenes or steals my lines
And I swear if her pretty
Red toenails could speak they'd say
"there's no one else worth pretending to be"
I could drop all my lines
I could throw my ropes into the water
Oh, I could change my mind when
Today looks the same tomorrow
Oh, I could kill all of the
Time that truly deserves to die
If I could kill only the time
That truly deserves to die
Oh, when I've killed only the time
That truly deserves to die, then so will I
All those deep sea divers of Brooklyn
The phantom buses swimming past
When the morning is rolled out onto the set
I see two crows sharin' a cigarette
While you're waitin' by the catering truck
Parked outside of yesterday's news
For the starlet, for the stuntman
For some sign of a camera crew
Then I swear I overhear somebody say
"well the sky in here looks so blue today"
I could drop all my lines
I could throw my ropes into the water
I could change my mind now today
Looks the same as tomorrow
If I could kill only the time
That truly deserves to die, then so will I
I see jet streams, trails of small talk
Phosphorescence on an ocean of air
And I move slowly along the bottom
Past old folks in their folding chairs
Then Yolanda asks if I got any change
Well that's exactly what he
What she said yesterday
And I gave her all I had in my
Pockets just 'cause she's a real swell guy
And she never ever breaks character
Crashes my scenes or steals my lines
And I swear if her pretty
Red toenails could speak they'd say
"there's no one else worth pretending to be"
I could drop all my lines
I could throw my ropes into the water
Oh, I could change my mind when
Today looks the same tomorrow
Oh, I could kill all of the
Time that truly deserves to die
If I could kill only the time
That truly deserves to die
Oh, when I've killed only the time
That truly deserves to die, then so will I
