Pere Ubu - Say Goodbye lyrics

The day recedes It slides across some boards Had some wings Had some dusty tides rolling across the floor What a strange debris left on a forign shore! Who knows how it goes to go walking out that door? Say goodbye How hard I try Some air to breathe There's no one half so sure As a drowning man Who knows he's coming on up for more Gimme words! Gimme words please I heard a man did pray Oh I never known a fear like it Nothing left to say How can I leave you when you won't go away? To get caught in the middle Neither night, neither day? I fell so broke up and it's harder to be sure But the whole wide world's got to be Rolling out of that door How can I leave you when you won't go away? Am I am mule? Or a goat? Or it's my heart that's bound to stay I might be the barricuda's nearest next of kin! Oh man, here it comes I said, it's coming around again
