The Flaming Lips Latenighttales Lyrics
1.2HB

Oh I was moved by your screen dream
Celluloid pictures of living
Your death could not kill my love for you
Take two people romantic
Smoky nightclub situation
Your cigarette traces a ladder
Heres looking at you kid
Celebrate years
Heres looking at you kid
Wipe away tears
Long time since were together
Now I hope its forever

Ideal love flies away now
White jacket, black tie, wings too
You gave her away to the hero
Words dont express my meaning
Notes could not spell out the score
But finding not keepings the lesson
Heres looking at you kid
Hard to forget
Heres looking at you kid
At least not yet
Your memory stays
It lingers ever
Will fade away never


2.On Fire

My opinion could change today, but I
For second or third hand information
That complicates the complication
And I don
And I don
So wrong nearly every time, that I
If what I said was unkind
Now it feels like I
It
But don
Is there any need for apology? There
Judgments born in my jealous mind, creeping inside outside
Connections I
And sooner or later disappoint you
Or cross you twice when your back is turned, that
That someone has got to be burned
Now it feels like I
But don
Feels like I
Don
Someone to hold to, someone to hold on to


3.People

People figure it out, you're just a reflection,
Of all you're allowed to be.
People moving around a single illusion,
To keep you from falling down.

Don't just do what you're told,
Go and try it out or...

People unable to rise, take it or leave it,
There's little to jeapordise.
People what does it matter? You sit doing nothing,
Just getting as fat as you can.

Don't just do what you're told,
Go and try it out or...
Ahhhhhh.......

People living through doubt, it's hardly an option,
To hope it just all works out.

Don't just do what you're told,
Go and try it out or...
Ahhhhhh.......
