Peter Gabriel Lyrics

"Put The Bucket Down (Bright-Side Mix)"

Well a story begins
With the dark in my hand
I'm tied to the rock
That burns in the sand
The waves are crashing
And the jelly's afloat
And the flowers in the water
Surrounding the boat

Whose mind is this?
Just tell me who
Whose mind is this?
No meaning coming through

There's a hole in my head
You can see right through
I make out a mirror
But I can only see you
I'm becoming a building
With a door for a mouth
My head's in the North
And my feet in the South
The walls of my skin so alive to the touch
Come in to the building
I want you so much

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Put the bucket down
Hey
Put the bucket down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Put the bucket down
Hey
Put the bucket down

I am the sum of all the signals
That move inside the head
The less you have
The more you can make of it
With all those senses and those feelings
That light up in the brain
And they paint the picture
Build a brand new world again
World again

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Put the bucket down
Hey
Put the bucket down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Put the bucket down
Hey
Put the bucket down

When theses thoughts move around me
They swim inside my head
No idea which've been written
Which thoughts have just been read
Some light up the shadows
Bringing life back to the dead
While all the maps keep changing
Imagination led

Whose mind is this?
Just tell me who
Whose mind is this?
No meaning coming through

But the salt is in the chocolate
The silky sexy stain
I feel the illumination
In all the circuits of my brain
They show me where we're going
Unroll the love and pain
No one here can tell you where we're heading on this train

I am the sum of all the signals
That move inside the head
The less you have
The more you can make of it
With all those senses and those feelings
That light up in the brain
And they paint the picture
Build a brand new world again
World again

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Put the bucket down
Hey
Put the bucket down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Put the bucket down
Hey
Put the bucket down

I am the sum of all the signals
That move inside the head
The less you have
The more you can make of it
With all those senses and those feelings
That light up in the brain
And they paint the picture
Build a brand new world again
World again

Well this story's beginning
Is the same as the end
The train's in motion
It's Box Tunnel 'round the bend
It's Box Tunnel 'round the bend
It's Box Tunnel 'round the bend
