Things X

Things X - John Cale

Written by：John Cale

Elsewhere in the temple the llamas are gearing up

To assault a tiger mountain when the sun comes up

Deconstructing Hollywood into the sand

Putting it back together with a rubber band

Legendary failures of the silver screen

Mimicking the software they end up in

Doing it

Doing the thing

Doing it

Doing the thing

The thing you do in Denver when you're dead

A month is a Saturday

Wednesday's a week

I saw the way you looked at her charlie brown

Good grief

She pulled you into the shadows and taught you how to love

Patted you on the head and gave you a shove

You were doing it

Doing the thing

Doing it

Doing the thing

The thing you do in Denver when you're

Dead

Dead

Sat around whispering in the candle light

Getting a game plan for the night

Telling the difference between the north and the south

Keep a gun in your pocket

And your tongue in your mouth

While you were doing

Doing

The thing

Doing

Doing the thing

The thing you do in Denver when you're dead

The sexual exuberance of a concubine

Checks my carburetors

One more time

With the passion of a thorough bread and the sensitivity of a

Moose

I rarely make a move unless I've got some proof

That you'll doing it

Doing the thing

Doing it

Doing the thing

The thing you do in Denver when you're dead

You live in Paris

I live in France

Things are expensive when you live first class

I learnt latin

You learnt greek

When you've got a minute

Let's meet in crete we'll be doing it

Doing the thing

Doing it

Doing the thing

The thing you do in Denver when you're dead

Doing it in Denver when you're dead

Doing it in Denver when you're dead

Doing it in Denver when you're dead

Doing it in Denver when you're dead

Doing it in Denver

Doing it in Denver

Doing it in Denver when you're dead
