Gorgeous/Grotesque Lyrics
There's nothing more gorgeous or grotesque
than the sight of the garbage dumped
on the sides of the railroad tracks
In the morning on my way to work
I see them, little lumps
just glittering in the sunshine
What a messy way to say thank you
What a messy way to say anything
Oh, we need a closeness
There's nothing more helpless or hopeless
than the birds of the city street
with the dirt on their heavy wings
In the evening, on my way to sleep
I hear them, screaming out
into a bitter melody
I think, what a messy way to say thank you
What a messy way to say anything
Oh, we need a closeness
'Cause when I wake,
I am so far from reach
I am so far from...
Oh, we need a closeness!
A heartless closeness!
Oh, we need a closeness!
A heartless closeness!
than the sight of the garbage dumped
on the sides of the railroad tracks
In the morning on my way to work
I see them, little lumps
just glittering in the sunshine
What a messy way to say anything
Oh, we need a closeness
than the birds of the city street
with the dirt on their heavy wings
In the evening, on my way to sleep
I hear them, screaming out
into a bitter melody
What a messy way to say anything
Oh, we need a closeness
I am so far from reach
I am so far from...
A heartless closeness!
Oh, we need a closeness!
A heartless closeness!
