Lyrics Vic Chesnutt

Vic Chesnutt

Squeak

The wall came down, yes I saw it (?)

The reporter is a new age junkie, keeps his needles in a pyramid

Camera on his shoulder and chips on the pavement

A hundred german dollars, well don't that just about pay my rent

Yes I am weak, outlook is bleak yes I'm on stage come and listen to squeak

Yes I'm on stage come listen to squeak.

Well the picture is flickering

A surge of some kind

If you shake that thing more than 3 times you're liable to go blind

Pretty shoes and a sparkly hat

Eyeballing crass commercialism, well I couldn't live like that

I am weak, outlook is bleak yes I'm on stage come listen to squeak

Yes I'm on stage come listen to squeak

The picture is flickering, a surge of some kind

If you shake that thing more than 3 times you're likely to go blind!

Allies, enemies, summits to climb!

Warsaw pacts, remaking maps, yes it's all pink on the inside!

Yes I am weak, outlook is bleak yes I'm on stage come listen to squeak

Yes I'm on stage come listen to squeak
