1.Beach Music
One or two more times inside my head, and what's it stand for
Racing time, the temporary far away from your door
Once in a while, I find I run one more mile
Though I know you're not my idea
Feel I'm kind of stuck with you
What's behind the lines, the lines
Caught in the center, your hollow entertainer
And I wonder, whatever do I see in you？
Yeah, but I see it in you
Autumn breaks, your boyfriend wakes, leaves fast with your
daughter
I've seen you time and time again, pictures of them
And tell me about your royalty and (ice land)
You waltzed right in the center and just sat
You threw our lives upon our ears like that
I can't believe you died
Caught in the center, your hollow entertainer
And I wonder, whatever do I see in you？
Yeah, but I see it in you
(CD) turns, the candle burns, bed-ridden 'cause you have to
Sleeping all your days away, 'cause waking hours scare you
How about a smile be the last thing that I did to you？
Hands off the trigger, 'cause I'm a hollow entertainer
Also, I wonder whatever do I see in you？
And did you see it in me？
Comments ： What an unbelievable song. No frills, no nothing,
just Dan alone at the piano and wonderful lyrics. This song is
such a curiosity because it is the only song on the album that
the lyrics are not written out for, and it is also the only song
on the album that lists lyric credits to the whole band rather
than to Dan or Joe. I have a hard time interpreting it, though
it really touches me. There is a book called Beach Music, and I
wonder if it has anything to do with the book. Any ideas
welcome.
