Pixies The Thing Lyrics

The Thing Lyrics

i was driving doing nothing on the shores of Great Salt Lake

when they put it on the air i put it in the hammer lane

i soon forgot myself and i forgot about the brake

i forgot about all laws and i forgot about the rain

they were talking on the 9 and all across the amy band

across the road they were turning around and headed south with me

it got so crowded on the road i started driving in the sand

my head was feeling scared but my heart was feeling free

the desert turned to mud it seems that everybody heard

everybody was remembering to forget they had the chills

then i heard the voices on a broadcast from up on the bird

they were getting interviewed by some Goodman whose name was Bill

i'm almost there to Vegas where they're puttin' on a show

they've come so far i've lived this long at least i must just go and say hello
