"Unseen Power Of The Picket Fence" lyrics
"Unseen Power Of The Picket Fence"
Some bands I like to name check
And one of them is R.E.M.
Classic songs with a long history
Southern boys just like you and me
R - E - M
Flashback to 1983
"Chronic Town" was their first EP
Later on came "Reckoning"
Finster's art, and titles to match
"So. Central Rain", "(Don't Go Back to) Rockville"
"Harborcoat", "Pretty Persuasion"
You were born to be a camera
"Time After Time" was my least favorite song
"Time After Time" was my least favorite song
The singer, he had long hair
And the drummer he knew restraint
And the bass man he had all the right moves
And the guitar player was no saint
So lets go way back to the ancient times
When there were no 50 states
And on a hill there stands Sherman
Sherman and his mates
And they're marching through Georgia
We're marching through Georgia
We're marching through Georgia
G-G-G-G-Georgia
They're marching through Georgia
We're marching through Georgia
Marching through Georgia
G-G-G-G-Georgia
And there stands R.E.M
(Aye Sir, Aye Sir, Aye Sir they're coming, Aye Sir, move those wagons, Aye Sir, Artillery's in place Sir, Aye Sir, Aye Sir, hide it, hide it, Aye Sir, run, run)

Silver Jews - "Advice To The Graduate" If you got a message
Leave your name and number
And we'll get back to you
Sleep on your back and ash in your shoes
And always use the old sense of the words
Your third drink will lead you astray...
Ride - "Polar Bear" She knew she was able to fly because when she came down
She had dust on her hands from the sky, she said I touched a cloud
She felt so high, the dust made her cry
She knew she could fly like a bird...
The Brian Jonestown Massacre - "Dawn" I stayed up all night
Til the morning's first light
What did I see?
I know it wasn't me there
I waited for you
For my dreams to come true
What will they be?
I hope I can see you...
Daniel Johnston - "Psycho Nightmare" It's just another psycho nightmare
So don't you forget
You've always been the teacher's pet
It's a tired and slow song baby
Don't be upset
Just remember the future has not happened yet
Every shiny...
