"Blackboard Sky" lyrics
"Blackboard Sky"
They're frying fish in Chinatown and the wind smells of rain
My head is ticking like a bomb on a subway train
Now I call to the On High and I get opened up like Venetian blinds
And I draw your face on the blackboard sky
Yeah, I draw your face on blackboard sky
The worst is over, hum a hymn to her burning my face
For such a villain I am criminally underpaid
Now my rope is tied, the gas is on
The chair is begging to be climbed
Then I draw your face on the blackboard sky
Yeah, I draw your face on blackboard sky
And if I look in your eyes and I see you say yes
If I see you say yes, we'll be happy once again
Fresh out of hell on a morning so cold and alone
Nobody there to say welcome home
So I roll like the leaves and I blow like the sand
And I tumble like a paper cup caught in the wind
Now I see all sides
Sense is not the issue
I got the eyes of the fly
Then I draw your face on blackboard sky
Yeah, I draw your face on blackboard sky

And boy, am I sorry
