R.E.M. - Beat A Drum
the sun reflected in the back of my eye I knocked my head against the sky
the dragonflies are busy buzzing me seahorses if we were in the sea
halfway from coal, halfway to diamond. my fall knocked a mean chip out of me
I'm gathering as far as I can reach we're perched upon the precipice and this is what I've seen
this is all I want it's all I need this is all I am it's everything this is all I want it's all I need
a bluejay hectors from the felled catalpa tree a doctorate in science and a theologian's dream
the dragonflies are trying to lecture me seahorses if we we're in the sea
this is all I want it's all I need this is all I am it's everything this is all I want it's all I need
beat a drum for me, like a butterfly wing tropical storm across the ocean
don't explain, I'm sure I'll want to know. don't forget, we're just halfway from coal
this is all I want it's all I need this is all I am it's everything this is all I want it's all I need |
