Lake - Driving With Your Eyes Closed lyrics

I met a Frenchman in a field last night He was out there with an easel, painting carnival light He said, I used to paint the princess; I used to paint the frogs Now I paint moustaches on dangerous dogs He said, Sometimes it's a country; sometimes it's a girl Everybody got to have a purpose in this world You Yankees are so silly about matters of the heart Don't you know that women are the only works of art When you're drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed Gonna hit somethin' That's the way it goes Some guys were born to Rimbaud Some guys breath Baudelaire Some guys just got to go and put their rockets everywhere You can breed 'em by the thousands; you can trick and you can train Just look at all those poor dogs that are dragged down by the Seine How many arrows must I shoot into the blue? Ah, you little baby, I'm crazy over you Some before The d**h of Lovers and The Punishment of Pride Let's go scrape across the terrazzo It's just too hot outside Drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed You're gonna hit somethin' But that's the way it goes Small talk Talk talk, sweet talk Talk talk, tough talk Talk talk, dirty talk Talk talk, walk and talk Talk talk, big talk Talk talk, baby talk Here we go again Drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed You're hit somethin' But that's the way it goes Drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed Drivin' with your eyes closed You're gonna hit somethin' That the way it goes
