Guided By Voices

Total exposure

Guided By Voices


How dare you say
"you have a good one"
when its obvious I don't
As plain as the nose on my face
examine small holes with searchlights
and open up the night
to the light 
listen to the way the children play as the day slips away
and the light comes on
total exposure
Dreams can't wait 
for tomorrow 
they want the plastic everlasting 
now or never
But listen to the way 
the children play 
as the day slips away
and the light comes on
total exposure 
And the tide connects
where surfers ride 
and the power plants the doomsday crop
But listen to the way the children play
as the day slips away 
and the light comes on
total exposure
