SMASHMOUTH - "Out Of Sight"



8. Shoes 'N' Hats
9. Hold You High
10. The In Set
11. Disenchanted
12. Keep It Down
13. I'm A Believer



Paintings of dogs playing pool
Smokin' cigarattes they drink 'til they drool
Well we ain't so dumb, just numb
And tomorrow's another year
Could you tell us what happened 'cause we weren't here
We've been hitchin' a ride with a big fake rubber thumb

CHORUS
And you're a star now, blinkin' bright
And you drive so fast now, out of sight

The ticker tape wants us to fail
And the limousine just drives us to jail
And the concierge can't tell us where the ladies dance
But you are my friend in miles
Radio waves, stations, and dials, and smiles
Cities and towns, slow down

CHORUS
And you're a star now, blinkin' bright
And you drive so fast now, out of sight
Out of sight
Out of sight

INSTRUMENTAL (haunting)

CHORUS
And you're a star now, blinkin' bright
And you drive so fast now, out of sight
Out of sight
Out of sight
Out of sight


Stream-Of-Consciousness Reactions

Very haunting, tragic, sad. I get goosebumps when Steve sings the "out of sight" lines. Harmonica solo's really effective. Great title. I feel like I'm really out of sight.
