Beat Album Lyrics

Neal and Jack and Me
  • (Belew/King Crimson)
  • I'm wheels, I am moving wheels
  • I am a 1952 studebaker coupe
  • I'm wheels, I am moving wheels moving wheels
  • I am a 1952 starlite coupe...
  • En route.....les Souterrains
  • Des visions du Cody...Sartori a Paris...
  • Strange spaghetti in this solemn city...
  • There's a postcard we're all seen before...
  • Past wild-haired teens in dark clothing
  • With hands-full of autographed napkins we
  • eat apples in vans with sandwiches ... rush
  • Into the lobby life of hurry up and wait
  • Hurry up and wait for all the odd-shaped keys
  • Which lead to new soap and envelopes...
  • Hotel room homesickness on a fresh blue bed
  • And the longest-ever phone call home.....no
  • Sleep no sleep no sleep no sleep and no mad
  • Video machine to eat time... a cityscene
  • I can't explain, the Seine alone at 4am
  • The Seine alone at 4a.m....Neal and Jack and me
  • Absent lovers, absent lovers...


Heartbeat
  • (Belew/King Crimson)
  • I need to feel your heartbeat heartbeat
  • so close, feels like mine
  • all mine
  • I need to feel your heartbeat heartbeat
  • so close it feels like mine
  • all mine...
  • I remember the feeling
  • my hands in your hair
  • hands in your hair
  • I remember the feeling
  • of the rhythm we made
  • the rhythm we made
  • I need to land sometime
  • right next to you
  • feel your heartbeat heartbeat
  • right next to me.....


Waiting Man
  • (Belew/King Crimson)
  • I come back...come back
  • you see my return
  • my returning face is smiling
  • smile of a waiting man...
  • I be home soon soon soon
  • soon cry on your shoulder
  • your shoulder against my burning tears
  • tears of a waiting man...
  • one two three four one two three...
  • I wait every moment
  • I wait, wait for my chance
  • I wait for my friend to say
  • hello, you waiting man
  • feel no fret feel no fret feel no fret
  • you can wait and feel no fret
  • and so I wait so I wait so I wait so I wait
  • I return face is smiling
  • be home soon cry on your shoulder
  • tears of a waiting man
  • every moment wait for my chance
  • my friend say hello feel no fret
  • you can wait and I wait and I wait
  • and home I am...


Neurotica
  • (Belew/King Crimson)
  • Good morning, it's 3am in this great roaring
  • city full of garbage eaters ravaging parking
  • spots beneath my plaza window I see cheetah in their
  • tight skins and tired heels all-night hippo in
  • the diner crossing the street swarthy heards of young
  • impala flambastic gibbon even a struggling monza
  • and over there that brilliant head ornament on that
  • Japanese macaque but look closely at the hammerhead hand
  • in hand with the mandrill, it's a sight you're
  • unlikely to see anywhere else on the planet...
  • the stench and noise, yes, yes, the howler's
  • resonating repertoire is not too bad when mixed with
  • the more musical twern of the tropical warbler but the
  • impatient taxi blare the squawking elderly ibis and
  • the glass-eye snapper hawking papers I can certainly
  • live without also be cautious of the poisonous
  • boomslang laughter social droppings of the fruit bat
  • and purple queen fish and who's that babbler conversing
  • with a magazine stand? evidently he's getting a good
  • reply...
  • arrive in neurotica
  • through neon heat disease
  • I swear at the swarming heards
  • I sweat the foul terrain
  • I rove the moving scenery
  • I have no fin
  • no wing no stinger
  • no claw no camouflage
  • I have no more to say...
  • Say...isn't that an elephant fish on the corner over
  • there look at that blush baby mud puppy noolbenger
  • rhinoderma marmoset spring peeper shingleback skink
  • siren skate starling sun-gazer spoonbill and suckers,
  • they seem to be everywhere, well it's a live revue
  • random animal parts now playing nightly right here in neurotica...
  • so long...


Two Hands
  • (Margaret Belew/King Crimson)
  • Oh they're touching
  • They're touching each other
  • They're feeling
  • They push and move
  • And love each other, love each other
  • They fit together like two hands...
  • I am a face
  • in the painting on the wall
  • I pose and shudder
  • And watch from the foot of the bed
  • Sometimes I think I can
  • Feel everything...
  • The wind is blowing
  • My hair in their direction
  • The wind is bending my hair
  • There are no windows in the painting
  • No open windows, no open windows, no...
