Parry The Wind High, Low

(Album: Frank Black - 1993)

And if a ship meets your car
You know you can't go real far
Well they could treat you real nice
Or put a tracking device
Way down inside

I'm checking out inventions at the UFO convention tonight
Planes above the Hilton make it sunny, brought my money tonight
Blue blond ladies of abduction strumming guitars of instruction delight
A lot of wannabe truckers making eyes with starfuckers tonight

I've got my hands on some sights
Electric glasses with lights
They got me feeling deluxe
For just a couple of bucks
Way down inside

I'm getting patterns from a trekker and it sounds like soul records to me
They're waving hi from some gazebo, waving on to Arecibo to me
Getting patterns from a trekker, sounds like soul records to me
Patterns from a trekker, sounds Desmond Dekker to me

Sleep machine
In your silo
Transmarine
Things you've never seen

Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low

Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low

Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low

Parry the wind high, low
Parry the wind high, low
