歌曲歌詞
You've gone it seems
to great extremes
To tell the tales you tell
You've lived them mall
both great and small
And so you tell them well
Extremes it seems
Are just the thing
That cause your tales to grow
But everything is extreme it seems
To you so there you go
Swimming to Cambodia monster in a box
This dude just flipping sits there
And they film him while he talks
There ain't no sex or violence
Might not float your boat
A water glass a table
And a page or two of notes
Bye bye just a wave if you will
Bye bye we'll be standing here still
Bye bye just a wave if you will
Bye bye we'll be standing here still
Your mother died a suicide
So odds were up they say
That you would see things comparably
And end it all some day
A monologing diarist
Makes his life his art
Offstage walks a tightwire
And might fall apart
Motor crash in Ireland
Bad blow to the head
Modified his madness
And darkened things he said
Bye bye just a wave if you will
Bye bye we'll be standing here still
Bye bye just a wave if you will
Bye bye we'll be standing here still
We'll be standing here
while the future breaks against us
Like the waves against a buoy in the bay
We'll be standing here
or is time a magic carpet
That we're riding on to
move from day to day
Riding on to move from day to day
You've gone it seems to great extremes
To tell the tales you tell
But everything is extreme it seems
To you so what the hell
Swimming to Cambodia monster in a box
This dude just flipping sits there
And they film him while he talks
People pay to watch it
As if it were a play
It ain't exactly acting
It's simply Spalding Gray
Bye bye just a wave if you will
Bye bye we'll be standing here still
Bye bye just a wave if you will
Bye bye we'll be standing here still
Bye bye just a wave if you will
Bye bye we'll be standing here still
