The only figure I have seen is gone
A ghost I made up in my dreams last night
I toss and turn, I shake his hand
If briefer night's encounters that I myself am never full of
I mess my pants and call out for my folks
In hope that they'll explain this sickly joke
They know that I have never been a spiritual man
And I ain't got the time
[Chorus]
I trust my brain, I know it's in control
I have no fear of anything at all
It makes no sense when I'm looking through the lens
If that thing is a ghost, we should run, run, run
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
[Verse 2]
And all the people I do love just left
I hear their feet stampede down all the steps
And trickle in my streets all made of stone
I see myself in the eye of the tornado
The Cadillac camaraderie's away from me
And all the people I have seen are just ghosts
I don't think I'm in Kansas anymore
I got a fishy feeling that I was bumped on the head
Sent straight to the bottom
With the latest of fashion: concrete shoes
[Chorus]
I trust my brain, I know it's in control
I have no fear of anything at all
It makes no sense when I'm looking through the lens
If that thing is a ghost, ah, we should probably run
[Bridge]
Forever's if there's nothing wrong
Say the words any old fool can hear
I don't wanna wreck his life, jeopardise his future
Run away to Mexico with his wife
I've got so much to tell you
I've got a story I bet you've never heard
About a ghost I saw when I was dreaming
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I trust my brain, I know it's in control
I have no fear of anything at all
It makes no sense when I'm looking through the lens
If that thing is a ghost, we should run, run, run
[Verse 1] The only figure I have seen is gone A ghost I made up in my dreams last night I toss and turn, I shake his hand If briefer night's encounters that I myself am never full of I mess my pants and call out for my folks In hope that they'll explain this sickly joke They know that I have never been a spiritual man And I ain't got the time [Chorus] I trust my brain, I know it's in control I have no fear of anything at all It makes no sense when I'm looking through the lens If that thing is a ghost, we should run, run, run Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah [Verse 2] And all the people I do love just left I hear their feet stampede down all the steps And trickle in my streets all made of stone I see myself in the eye of the tornado The Cadillac camaraderie's away from me And all the people I have seen are just ghosts I don't think I'm in Kansas anymore I got a fishy feeling that I was bumped on the head Sent straight to the bottom With the latest of fashion: concrete shoes [Chorus] I trust my brain, I know it's in control I have no fear of anything at all It makes no sense when I'm looking through the lens If that thing is a ghost, ah, we should probably run [Bridge] Forever's if there's nothing wrong Say the words any old fool can hear I don't wanna wreck his life, jeopardise his future Run away to Mexico with his wife I've got so much to tell you I've got a story I bet you've never heard About a ghost I saw when I was dreaming [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] I trust my brain, I know it's in control I have no fear of anything at all It makes no sense when I'm looking through the lens If that thing is a ghost, we should run, run, run Explain Request ×
