Electric Rainbow Lyrics
what did you do?
what did you do?
you've got some heat on you.
you've got some heat on you.
they've been tracing all your moves.
your mark has made you his
and if you want to live
let me suggest this:
get a gun and get a car.
get on the 25 south to Mexico.
you find some place and lay low, just lay low.
i just need to check the score...
there's this girl...
but you've got to move.
oh, stay lonely, stay quiet.
stay, you'll keep breathin' air.
how did it go so wrong so fast?
the confidence and then a money grab.
simple enough, simple enough a plan.
it all went to shit and you're on the run.
at least you've got the cash.
at least you've got the cash.
oh, stay lonely, stay quiet.
stay, you'll keep breathin' air.
oh, stay lonely, stay quiet.
stay, you'll keep breathin' air.
air
you'll keep breathin'
the road in front of
our protagonist
runs in.
then you'll sleep, this dough
under pillow
again.
again.
don't bring no lights on you.
what did you do?
what did you do?
you've got some heat on you.
you've got some heat on you.
they've been tracing all your moves.
what did you do?
what did you do?
you've got some heat on you.
you've got some heat on you.
what did you do?
what did you do?
what did you do?
you've got some heat on you.
you've got some heat on you.
your mark has made you his
and if you want to live
let me suggest this:
you find some place and lay low, just lay low.
there's this girl...
but you've got to move.
stay, you'll keep breathin' air.
the confidence and then a money grab.
simple enough, simple enough a plan.
it all went to shit and you're on the run.
at least you've got the cash.
stay, you'll keep breathin' air.
oh, stay lonely, stay quiet.
stay, you'll keep breathin' air.
you'll keep breathin'
our protagonist
runs in.
under pillow
again.
what did you do?
you've got some heat on you.
you've got some heat on you.

what did you do?
you've got some heat on you.
you've got some heat on you.

These are as close to the lyrics as I could get between listening to live performances and the studio version.
I'm far from getting Patiently Waiting figured out entirely, though I've been trying.
yeah the lyrics are hard to make out in some points and i was going to submit this, pretty much the same lyrics with a few changes. such an awesome song.
love this song. so much.
This is probably my favorite MTB song behind Houston. Why this was not on PoI, I don't know, but it makes me want to kick their record label. Think how good of a single that this COULD be, but I'm glad it'll stay in obscurity.
i think this song is about 2 people stealing food from a buffet.
"what did you do? you got some meat on you" was what tipped me off.
but seriously, it's a sick song. i can't find anywhere to download it. i wouldn't mind paying for it, but you can't even find it in places like itunes. anybody know how to get it short of buying another copy of planet of ice.
Where can I get this song?
Is it only available as a live version?
I'm pretty sure the 'stay lonely' is actually "stay low, man". Which would fit in the rest of the lyrics well.
And this song reminds me of a movie or book. The "narrator" is talking to a friend who has pulled off some heist/rip off of some very dangerous people. Perhaps something to do with gambling, as he says something about "the score".
This is a reference to Sally Field's arduous escape from Iran in "Not Without My Daughter".
