Screaming Fields Of Sonic Love

Sonic Youth Screaming Fields Of Sonic Love Lyrics
1.Beauty Lies In The Eye

There's something in the air there
Makes you go insane
Brings you back to me
It's been so long
All that i have to do
Is live along
It's coming coming down
Over me
Do you want to see
The explosions in my eye
Do you want to see
The reflection of
How we used to be
Beauty lies
In the eyes of anothers dreams
Beauty lies
Lost in anothers dream
It's coming coming down
Over me
Do you want to see
The explosions in my eye
Do you want to see
The reflection of
How it used to be

Hey baby
Hey sweetheart
Hey fox come here
Hey beautiful
Come here sugar


2.Brother James

Take my hand he said to me
Follow now or you'll be damned
Let's go to the other side
Let's go to the other side

Great father, give me the keys
Great father, give me the keys

Brother james gave them to me
Brother james gave them to me

I don't need 'em anymore
Someone knockin' at my door
I don't need 'em anymore
Someone knockin' at my door

Take my hand you might as well
We're going straight to hell
I don't wanna hang around
Watch'em stick your head in the ground


3.Candle

I see a dog star divin' at his magic, snatchin'
Keeps me up awake go crystal cracking
I can't wait
I can't stay, a candle
Gotta change my mind before it burns out

I'm the cocker on the rock
Wind is whipping through my stupid mop

I see a falling snowgirl walking broadway
Turns the corner at 14th and i know there's no way
It's alright
It's alight candle
And i know she'll be okay by sunday

I'm the cocker on the rock
Humming bash starts shining
In your electric clock

It's safe to say, candle
Tonight's the day, candle
It's alright now, candle
The wind's away, candle
Never thought i'd see a dog star falling

I'm the cocker on the rock
Wind is whipping through my stupid mop


Thurston both lydia lunch

Groooooahhh!

Coming down
Sadie, i love it
Now now now
Death valley '69

You're right
You're right
You're right
You're right
You're right you were right
I was on the wrong track
We're deep in the valley
How deep in the gulley
And now in the canyon
And now in the canyon
Out in the yonder way out in the yonder
She started to holler
She started to holler
I didn't wanna
I didn't wanna
I didn't wanna
I didn't wanna
But she started to holler
So i had to hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Deep in the valley
In the trunk of an old car
In the back of a chevvy
I got sand in my mouth you got sand in your mouth
And you got sun in your eyes i got sun in your eyes
Blind blinded
And you wanted to get there
But i couldn't go faster i wanted to get there
But you couldn't go faster
So i started to hit it you couldn't go faster
So i started to hit it
I started to hit it hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it

Coming down
Sadie, i love it
Now now now
Death valley '69
Death valley '69
Death valley '69
Death valley '69
Ieieieioooooaoaoaieeih!


5.Eric's Trip

Hatred
I hate the past

I can't see anything at all, all i see is me
That's clear enough
And that's whats important, to see me

My eyes can focus
My brain is talking
Looks pretty good to me
My head's on straight, my girlfriend's beautiful
Looks pretty good to me

Sometimes i speak
Tonight there's nothing to say
Sometimes we freak
And laugh all day

Hold these pages up to the light
See the jacknife inside of the dream
A railroad runs through the record stores at night
Coming in for the deep freeze

Mary: a simple word, are you there in the country?
Yr eyes so full, yr head so tight
Can't you hear me?
Remember our talk
That day on the phone?
I was the door, and you were the station
With shattered glass and miles between us
We still flew away in the conversation

My cup is full, and i feel okay
The world is dull, but not today

She think's she's a goddess
She says she talks to the spirits
I wonder if she can talk to herself?
If she can bear to hear it?

This is eric's trip
We've all come to watch him slip
He's slipping all the way to texas
Can you dig it?

(eric says 'the sky is blue...')
I see with a glass eye
The pavement view
A shadow forming, across the fields rushing
Thru me to you

We tore down the world, and put up four walls
I breathe in the myth
I'm over the city, fucking the future
I'm high and inside yr kiss

We can't see clear
But what we see is a alright
We make up what we can't hear
And then we sing all night

Scattered pages and shattered lights
A jacknife and a dream
There's something moving over there on the right
Like nothing i've never seen

Support the power of women
Use the power of man
Support the flower of women
Use the word:
Fuck
The word is love

Support the power of women
Use the power of man
Support the flower of women
Use the word:

The word is
Love

There's a new girl in your life
Long red wavy hair
Green green lips and purple eyes
Skinny hips and big brown breasts
Hanging on your wall
One end slit the other's ripped

Support the power of women
Use the power of man
Support the flower of women
Use the word
Fuck
The word is love

Support the power of women
Use the flower of man

9.Hallowe'en

There's something shifting in the distance
Don't know what it is
Except for the feeling that's
Crawling up inside of me as you
Sing your song as you
Swing along and you're
It's your, your song

It's the devil in me
Makes me stare at you as you
Twist up along you
Sing your song and you
Slipping up to me and you're
So close i just a
Wanna touch you and i
Sing your song and you
Dont know what's going on but you
Wanna me to come along as you
Sing your song and you're
Fucking with me as you
Slither up to me
Your lips there
Slipping twisting at my
Insides and singing on
You're just a
Swinging man, it's not your
Swinging song and now i
Don't know what you want but
You're looking at me and you're
Falling to the ground and you're
Twisting around fucking with my
My mind and i don't know what
's going on

Swinging in your song
Twisting me on as you
Slither up to me and it's gotta be
And i don't know what you wanna do
And you're looking at me with your big dark eyes
And you're rubbing your body

Twisting

12.I Dreamed I Dream

Look before you leap, okay?
Do you read me?
May all your dreams come true
He's standing by the door
He's got something in his hands
All the money's gone
All the money's gone
The days we spend, go on and on
Shift
Fucking youth
Working youth
May all your dreams come true

A lot of people suffer
From impotence
All the money's gone
The days we spend go on and on
Fucking youth
Working youth
Fucking youth
Working youth
Fucking youth
Fucking youth
Working youth

You slept
Did i drift?
Do i dream?
Do you read me?
I'm not speaking
Do you read me?
I dream

I dream

Sound today are you sound today
Are you sound today?
Sound today are you sound today
Are you sound today?
Today
These things don't happen
Automatically
I dream
Edith moves each step
Fucking youth
The days we spent go on and on
I dream
Do you read me?


13.Kotton Crown

Love has come to stay in all the way
Its gonna stay forever and every day
It feels like a wish coming true
It feels like an angel dreaming of you
Feels like heaven forgiving and getting
Feels like we're fading and celebrating
You got a carnal spirit spraying
I'm gonna laugh it up
You got a cotton crown i'm gonna keep it underground
You're gonna take control of the chemistry
And you're gonna manifest the mystery
You got a magic wheel in your memory
I'm wasted in time and i'm looking everywhere
I don't care where
I don't care where
Angels are dreaming of you
Angels are dreaming of you
Angels are dreaming of you
Angels are dreaming of you

New york city is forever kitty
I'm wasted in time and you're never ready
Fading fading celebrating
I got your cotton crown
I got your cotton crown
I got your cotton crown
I got your cotton crown
I got your cotton crown
I got it


14.Making The Nature Scene

Going back to these origins
The city is a natural scape
Order in the details
Confusion uproar in the whole
In nature reality is selection
The tool of critical intervention
Fragmentation is the rule
Unity is not taught in school
You are an unnatural growth
On a funny sunny street
The city has forgotten you
It's symbols of the past
The meaning of its state
Its order of decay
Stand now in a column
And make the nature scene

Standing now in columns
Making the nature scene
Making the nature scene
Waiting to make their pay
There is no resistance to
The signs along the way
Standing all in columns
Waiting to make their pay
Making the nature scene
Waiting for the day
There is no resistance to
There is no resistance to
Salvation means to count on you
It just means to count on you
Make the nature scene

Making the nature scene
Making the nature scene
Making the nature scene

Going back to these origins
The city is a natural scape
Order in the details
Confusion uproar in the whole
In nature reality is selection
The tool of critical intervention
Fragmentation is the rule
Unity is not taught in school
You are an unnatural growth
On a funny sunny street
The city has forgotten you
It's symbols of the past
The meaning of its state
Its order of decay
Stand now in a column
And make the nature scene

Standing now in columns
Making the nature scene
Making the nature scene
Waiting to make their pay
There is no resistance to
The signs along the way
Standing all in columns
Waiting to make their pay
Making the nature scene
Waiting for the day
There is no resistance to
There is no resistance to
Salvation means to count on you
It just means to count on you
Make the nature scene

Making the nature scene
Making the nature scene
Making the nature scene


15.Shadow Of A Doubt

Met a stranger on a train
He bumped right into me
I swear i didn't mean it
I swear it wasn't meant to be
Must a been a dream
From a thousand years ago
I swear i didn't mean it
I swear it wasn't meant to be
From the bottom of my heart
He was looking all over me
Together everafter
He said
'you take me & i'll be you'
'you kill him & i'll kill her'
Kiss me
I swear it wasn't meant to be
I swear i didn't mean it
Kiss me
Kiss me in the shadow of
Kiss me in the shadow of a doubt
Kiss me
Kiss me in the shadow
Kiss me in the shadow of a doubt
It's just a dream
It's just a dream i had
Nononoooooh
Swear it's just a dream
Just a dream
Dream i've had
No
No
No
No
Take me to it
Take me to her
Maybe
Maybe it's just a dream
It's a dream
It's just a
Just a
No

Met a stranger on a train
Bumped right into me
Swear i didn't mean it
Swear it wasn't meant to be
Must've been a dream
From a thousand years ago
Kiss me
Kiss me in the shadow of a doubt
Kiss me


16.Starpower

Spinning dreams with angel wings
Torn blue jeans + a foolish grin
Burning down in the night
So cool + so right
Starpower starpower starpower
Over me
She knows how to make love to me
She knows how to make love
Close my eyes and think of you
Everything turns black to blue
Starpower starpower starpower
Over me

Burning down in the night
Supercool it's alright
She knows how to make love to me
She knows how to make love
Close my mind when i think of you
Everything turns black to blue
Starpower starpower starpower
Over me


17.Teenage Riot

You're it
No, you're it
Hey, you're really it
You're it
No i mean it, you're it

Say it
Don't spray it
Spirit desire (face me)
Spirit desire (don't displace me)
Spirit desire
We will fall

Miss me
Don't dismiss me

Spirit desire

We will fall
Spirit desire
We will fall
We will fall
Spirit desire
We will fall

Everybody's talking 'bout the stormy weather
And what's a man do to but work out whether it's true?
Looking for a man with a focus and a temper
Who can open up a map and see between one and two

Time to get it
Before you let it
Get to you

Here he comes now
Stick to your guns
And let him through

Everybody's coming from the winter vacation
Taking in the sun in a exaltation to you
You come running in on platform shoes
With marshall stacks
To at least just give us a clue
Ah, here it comes
I know it's someone i knew

Teenage riot in a public station
Gonna fight and tear it up in a hypernation for you

Now i see it
I think i'll leave it out of the way
Now i come near you
And it's not clear why you fade away

Looking for a ride to your secret location
Where the kids are setting up a free-speed nation, for you
Got a foghorn and a drum and a hammer that's rockin'
And a cord and a pedal and a lock, that'll do me for now

It better work out
I hope it works out my way
'cause it's getting kind of quiet in my city's head
Takes a teen age riot to get me out of bed right now

You better look it
We're gonna shake it
Up to him

He acts the hero
We paint a zero
On his hand

We know it's down
We know it's bound too loose
Everybody's sound is round it
Everybody wants to be proud to choose
So who's to take the blame for the stormy weather
You're never gonna stop all the teenage leather and booze

It's time to go round
A one man showdown
Teach us how to fail

We're off the streets now
And back on the road
On the riot trail
