Bright Lights
from ziGZag by Eric Welton
lyrics
I am always almost
Gonna do it
Even though I don’t know
What the it is
I am almost
I am almost…
I am almost always
‘bout to do it
even though I dunno
what the it is
is there something
around the corner?
Is it something
in yer eyes
Is it something
That I saw
in a dream
Last night?
It’s no wonder I feel
A little crazy
We are witness To hor-
-rible crimes
Like cars
and trees
Like wars
and tv
no one
to tell
to save
me
They got all the rules
designed to be rewritten
to suit the want
of a few at the top
In a hurry,
in the back room,
behind my back,
Right under my nose,
veiled in bright light
Gonna do it
Even though I don’t know
What the it is
I am almost
I am almost…
I am almost always
‘bout to do it
even though I dunno
what the it is
is there something
around the corner?
Is it something
in yer eyes
Is it something
That I saw
in a dream
Last night?
It’s no wonder I feel
A little crazy
We are witness To hor-
-rible crimes
Like cars
and trees
Like wars
and tv
no one
to tell
to save
me
They got all the rules
designed to be rewritten
to suit the want
of a few at the top
In a hurry,
in the back room,
behind my back,
Right under my nose,
veiled in bright light
