Tangerine

Including the flub that i wrote to go with it 2 and a bit years ago.


This one is to a fairly quick time. Inspired by the opening from Tools' Third Eye (Talking about how drugs have been good to us re: great music made when high) So I thought I'd rip one out without the benefit of drugs. Yeah, tangerine from the Beatles' Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds :)




Slippin through a slide show world,
We're running through it backwards,
Only making progress, you're in a daze of pain

Shooting craps, shooting pool, shooting up tonight,
Orange is a colour, Tangerine makes you high.

The fire's looking pretty,
I wanna touch, a taste,
Words I'm in a heady swirl,
I wish I's off my face.

Shooting craps, shooting pool, shooting up tonight,
Orange is a colour, Fuchsia makes you high.

The phone is ringing in your head,
No, better check your pockets,
Mary's on the other line, she's lost her little lamb.

Slippin through a slide show world,
I'm jumping through some hoops,
Only making progress, you're in a daze of pain

Shooting craps, shooting pool, shooting up tonight,
Orange is a colour, Tangerine makes you high.
