**************************************************************************
LYRICS:
Verse 1:
Give me a minute
'Cos i'm wrapped in superstition
Pour me a chemical
to take away the edge
Pre 1:
Don't make up anything
that's breaking all your fingers
Just slap around a bit of
what it takes to pledge
Verse 2:
Carry out another
stone as a slave
Ask general Know-it-all
"Who's juggling the earth?"
Pre 2:
Tease all the natives that
will walk across your grave
And shove aside your nation
all for what it's worth
Chorus:
Beat yourself blind (x6)
An open eyes and a closed mind
Verse 3:
Look at the suit
in suspended animation
A faded outline
that used to be a man
Pre 3:
A piece of paper that's
fallen out a window
Has got a better chance to know
where it will land
Chorus:
Beat yourself blind (x6)
An open eyes and a closed mind
Bridge:
To blead in vain
To blead in vain
under my eyes
are painted skies
Verse 4:
Down at the boneyard
they're diggin up the relics
Handfulls of parasites
thrown into machines
I got the phone call
they're tearin down the mission
The zombies had a ball
But don't know what it means
Beat yourself Blind
