Phish - Wingsuit (full album) lyrics

1. WINGSUIT Steal away, let's steal a car You'll never win a major only shooting par Step outside, feel the sun It's only you, be you, cause you're the only one And it feels good cause it feels good And it feels good And it feels good cause it feels good And it feels good Nothing lasts, nothing stays Caught in this procession of unchanging days What's new is old, what's old is gone You're pushed up to the edge, so put your wingsuit on Put your wingsuit on (And it feels good cause it feels good) And gliding away, you fly where you choose There's nothing to say and nothing to lose Steal away, take the sky Put your wingsuit on, put your wingsuit on And gliding away, you fly where you choose There's nothing to say and nothing to lose Time to put your wingsuit on Time to put your wingsuit on 2. FUEGO I'm a sailor's girl, the best is yet to come Rolling in my Fuego, I do my own stunts I see guilty people, angels blowing horns Some days it's just not worth gnawing through the straps Freak out and throw stuff, World's Greatest Dad Read a little book about Vlad the Impaler Whoa, oh Whoa, oh Inside your Fuego, we keep it rolling Inside your Fuego, we keep it rolling Inside your Fuego, we keep it rolling Inside your Fuego, we keep it rolling I asked Diego if it was stolen Inside your Fuego, we keep it rolling Rolling, rolling, rolling Diego, Diego, Diego 3. THE LINE Dry mouth, push it out I can hear my heart pound A hero's what I'm not Voices scream, flashes flare Frozen as the people stare My crucifixion shot Friends worry, 'lectric on the Western Sidewalk, triangles were shifting on the floor Squeezing out the breath that I don't have The quiet now, they only want two more And you step to the line, and you step to the line Every shot I've taken has led me to this moment Since I was four feet high Big D. is watching, I remember what he taught me: "Don't let 'em see you cry." And you step to the line, and you step to the line Try to see your future from the line Clinging to the notion you'll be fine But the circle's getting smaller all the time Dry mouth, push it out I can hear my heart pound A hero's what I'm not Voices scream, flashes flare Frozen as the people stare My crucifixion shot Try to see your future from the line Clinging to the notion you'll be fine But the circle's getting smaller all the time 4. MONICA You'd lift me up - you higher'd me You'd light my day - you fired me But then you stole the sun - you blinded me Now the day is done - you night'd me It's floating on me, how it starts Your wisdom must be why it smarts Some whole sum has many parts Sing, sing Monica, sing your song Can you admit that you were wrong Sing, sing Monica, sing your song You go back home where you belong Go back home where you belong Sing Monica You gave me one last taste - retreated me That cut me off at the knees - defeated me From your ivory tower - inspired me And stole my manhood - desired me It's setting in now how it ends You may have won it all - depends Have-nots have as many friends Sing, sing Monica, sing your song It really didn't last too long Sing, sing Monica, sing your song Can you admit that you were wrong? Go back home where you belong (set me free, set me free) You charged me up - excited me Upended and - re-righted me Then you hooked me up - you wired me But when my tread was worn - you retired me I'm saying all this stuff because It's finally dawning on me how it was Sing Monica, Sing Monica, Sing Monica, Sing Monica! 5. WAITING ALL NIGHT All night and I'm waiting for you to come home Waiting all night, waiting all night I'm just wasting and I wonder what I did wrong Waiting all night, waiting all night Where would you be? I'm so alone, won't you please come home? Sun's coming up and I'm rolling over But I'm holding on Waiting all night And I said I'm sorry, but you went so far away Don't know why you left me this way But you sail on, sail on Waiting all night 6. WOMBAT Had to have that, had to have that You wombat, had that You gotta to take it with you when you're going forward If you're moving on, you gotta leave it behind (Know you got to leave it behind) You wombat, you had that It's kinda like the theme to the 'Fish' TV show You know, with Abe Vigoda (Bring it forward or leave it behind) You been working, took a big job (highly but deadly) That purple's caught in the centifuge Never did tumble over the side of a hill By a man named Wilson Heading down to Baton Rouge Spit out the seeds, gnaw on the pulp s** on the juice and simmer the rinds Herbivorous, crepuscular You had to have, bring it forward or leave it behind Cuddly, but muscular Herbivorous, crepuscular 7. SNOW You ride chariots of stone (?) It feels so calm Your swirling echo swung (?) Lost in tonal noise __that forms of shell And sinking __ ? 8. DEVOTION TO A DREAM No more promises that no one could keep No more lies to keep us from sleep No more phone calls It's today, the vows are broken It's today, charade is over It's today, the curtain's coming down Now the battle lines are chosen It's today, my eyes are open It's today, the time to turn around No more knowing glances or places we can hide No more chances to keep this thing alive The two of us together, it wasn't in the grand scheme All it was was a fairy tale and devotion to a dream No more promises, no more keeping score No more wondering what I stayed here for We broke the awkward silence with polite but practiced lies While images occupied our minds I never meant for voyage that stranded us upstream All it was was a fairy tale and devotion to a dream Devotion to a dream Yesterday my path was chosen Yesterday my smile was frozen Yesterday my doors were closing down Tomorrow I can cross the border It's today, the new world order Yesterday my will was broken down I don't know where this is leading Tomorrow's glaciers are receding ___ things have broken side ??? All compete for some spoken ?? For now I see that webs were woven Now I keep the windows open wide It's today, it's today 9. 555 Tie the blindfold across my eyes I rest my face down Skidding on switchback, there the signs Gonna try to bust out Get out, jump out Don't wait, gotta get away Hop out, roll down Spring up, live another day Spit on cobblestones, pa** the track Get my money and my water Don't wanna run cause it fight back Though I really oughta If I don't play with me I might stray from the same Make an escape when it arrives The 555 Bought my soul for a pile of cash Everybody else got paid out Closing in, gotta dash Gotta find a way out Hop out, roll down, spring up Live another day Get up, jump out Don't wait don't wait If I don't ___ with me I might stay the same Make an escape when it arrives 555 10. WINTERQUEEN The Winterqueen looks up and sighs "I wish that I controlled the skies" For up above is where to stand To those who walk on land The Summerqueen flies by and sees Her realm of bu*terflies and bees And says "I wish I lived below Instead I sail where breezes blow." And the rain came down It tried to seep into the ground The water deep pushed and poked The sod and soil, already soaked Began to roil The Prince of Silence walks below Beside a cave of ice and snow He says, "I wonder why the words Are locked in glaciers, never heard." The Prince of Music, on guitar Neglects to play a single bar The music trapped inside his head Resounds and fills the space instead The Winterqueen looks up and sighs The Winterqueen looks up and sighs 11. AMIDST THE PEALS OF LAUGHTER The birds are the enemies, their songs in the sun The hammering nails in the coffin of fun The last drop of warmth from your soul has been wrung You now have to face that the day has begun It means you'll be summoned to a place they call work In whose hallways you linger, in corners you lurk You're already three days late on a task They gave you to fail, they don't even ask Jack and Jill went up the hill To fetch a pail of water Jack fell down and broke his crown And Jill came tumbling after Amidst the peals of laughter Your brain is in pain and your fate has been sealed The liquid inside of your eyes has congealed You can't see in color or discern friend from foe The neighbors wake slowly and glare cause they know That you don't fit in, you can't earn their trust You're up at all hours, you're not one of us They scowl at your windows and smile at the sun The world has awakened, the day has begun Against my will, drawn up the hill Amidst the peals of laughter In pain, I'm chained to the back of the train Where I remain thereafter Amidst the peals of laughter Loose the caboose. I'm calling a truce 12. YOU NEVER KNOW It's on the way - you never know It's on the way - you never know Tried to get away but they just kept coming Landed the jet with the limo running With the bird on his shoulder he sure looked pretty Left the cage at home and went to Mexico City It's on the way - you never know The stars and players, I knew them all The Cristal bottles on the wall Robbed from Peter to pay for Paul They watched me rise But didn't stick around to see me fall And it's here, and it's now And it's here, and it's now Checking all those names right off your list 'Til there was no one left to call Money buys you friends, but Friends, money doesn't buy you much at all Came so close, I had it all It felt so good before the fall I saw it come but I let it go But I just met two guys with piles of cash in Mexico You never know, you never know Maybe that bird needed a cage Needed a cage after all 13. HALFWAY TO THE MOON I close my eyes as the curtain draws Ear toward the tracks And ever after the rhythm soars Flyin' right past the facts Hold the times that I brought to light Keep the pattern till June Make the other side right Half the way to the Moon I'm old enough to repeat myself I'm not tryin' to defend Holdin' onto the thoughts I have Back to circles again Holdin' back the emotion train Headin' back to Duluth All aboard for the tour Ridin' next to the truth I found a place that I can't explain In my state of mind I move myself as I search the stone For any lines to unwind I grabbed some change when I thought I could Left my wallet behind I did my best to refine I put my shoes out to shine A little star that reveals itself Little matter of time Holdin' on to the wheel I know Not the devil I'll find Raise the bar and roofbeams high Help me carry this tune Make the other side right Half the way to the moon
