The accompanying b-side of “Freakout!” single which was released 2 months prior to the release of their second album, The Great Pretenders.
Take a look at this beautiful mirage I found in a zoo
I only think it's you
The great pretenders
Re-arrangers
Can't stand up
Before I fire upon this
Quilt I made out of glass
Only wish it'd last
And when I'm up to bat
The catcher's in the womb
I've seen her old designs
Many, many multiple times
But it all gets lost in the wind
Who was the man who ran?
Ain't the one in my bed
I got the feeling it goes in and out and out
If only I could turn it on
Silly, won't you draw the tea?
Rough enough to call favours out your mouth
Shapes of latter-day saints when I'm around
Cuffing up the lovemakers
Take a look at this gun
It cracks in my hand
Pull the pin, it goes in and out and down
Got my own pentagon
Wonder if you got the key
Rough enough to call favours out your mouth
Shapes of latter-day saints when I'm around
Cuffing up the lovemakers
Don't know the girl
I've never seen her run
Catch a whiff of her breath mixed up in the air
Oh baby, your voice
Speaks to my present tense
Little time to tell you what's on my mind
Little time to shake the day
Too late
I should have shot it straight
Like an ordinary man
Strange flowers and animals come clean
Like an ordinary man
No dice, I can't look into your eyes
Like an ordinary man
By chance, you're a dream of circumstance
I'm still an extraordinary flair
