Randy Described Eternity (06:05)
Built to Spill • Perfect From Now On
Every Thousand Years
This metal sphere
Ten times the size of Jupiter
Flies just a few yards past the Earth

You climb on your roof
and take a swipe at it
with a single feather
and you do it once every thousand years

Til you've worn it down
to the size of a pea
Yeah, I'd say that's a long time
but it's only half a blink
in the place we're going to be

Where you going to be?
Where will you spend eternity?
I'm going to be perfect from now on
I'm going to be perfect starting now.

I will say I forgot it
but it was only yesterday
and that's all you have to say.

I Would Hurt a Fly (06:16)
Built to Spill • Perfect From Now On
I can't get that sound you make out of my head
I can't even figure out what's making it
no one else around even seems to be noticing
it's only small enough for me

I can't get that sound you make out of my head
I can't even figure out what's making it
it feels like fingernails across the moon
or do you rub your wings together
there's a mean bone in my body
it's connected to the problems that I won't take for an answer
and I won't take that from you
because I'd hurt a fly

let you go to sleep
feeling bad as me
let you go to sleep
feeling bad
there's a mean bone in my body
it's connected to the problems that I won't take for an answer
and I won't take that from you
because I'd hurt a fly

Stop the Show (06:27)
Built to Spill • Perfect From Now On
You dont tell me anything
Its not a dream
Its not a big lie

Youre not going anywhere
You dont care
You think thats fine

You dont owe me anything
The offering
Is already mine

Your best friend is everywhere
They dont care
They think youre slime

You dont even know
What it means to
Take your own advice and then
Expect me to look suprised

After a while you know the style and thats enough to kno you suck
And when you know to stop the show because you know they know
I know its sad but dont feel bad they knew they had it coming
After a while it hurts to smile and if you laugh its just a typical miracle

Made-Up Dreams (04:53)
Built to Spill • Perfect From Now On
these thoughts are old
let's keep it cold
dry lines on me
dry history
dryology

that stupid sound
that awful feel
don't bring them down
and it never will
no it never will
no it never will
no it never will

hard to believe
that after all this time
that after all this I'm
still me

no one wants to hear
what you dreamt about unless you dreamt about them
don't let that stop you
tell them anyway
and you can make it up as you go
I'm already gone now
you were outside just waiting
I'm already nothing
you just noticed me fading
it takes a lot to make me crazy
and a lot is always going on

Velvet Waltz (08:34)
Built to Spill • Perfect From Now On
if there's a word for you
it doesn't mean anything
I've got some words for you
they don't offer anything
you cold called everybody
but you haven't sold a thing
a bad idea gone funny
a pinch felt in a dream
you thought of everything but some things can't be thought
you thought of everything but one thing you forgot is you're wrong

and you better not be angry
and you better not be sad
you better just enjoy the luxury of sympathy
if that's a luxury you have
and you know no private bad
you know that that's the meaning of you're done
in a world that's not so bad
in a world time was killing in the sun
in a world that's not so bad
in a world time was killing in the sun
in the sun
in the sun
you took all that moment
and you left it in the sun
now it's gone because you left it in the sun
was a brave idea
didn't mean no harm
now it's burnt because you left it in the sun
was a grave mistake
but how could you have known
the temperature, the distance of the sun

Out of Site (05:34)
Built to Spill • Perfect From Now On
raised unright
so uptight
but why blame you
you wouldn't be if you could choose

most of the time it's out of site
it hit me today
who gave who the right
who took mine away
what a sight
what a sound
what a way to bring people down
what a way to bring me down

I know that you'll get yours when you get empty
it's so close
I'm sure that you would rather do that than be in your clothes

you must have waited a long time
bet you were disappointed
I waited longer than that
just goes to prove
proving's illogical but
(Illogical)
it's sometimes necessary
proving's illogical but
(Illogical)
it's a cinch

fa-la-la
fa-la-laaa
but why blame you
you wouldn't be if you could choose

most of the time it's out of site
it hit me today
who gave who the right
who took mine away
what a sight
what a sound
what a way to bring people down
what a way to bring me down
it goes on and on and on and on and on .....

Kicked It in the Sun (07:33)
Built to Spill • Perfect From Now On
backwashed thoughts and you made me talk
no you made me listen
theres a feeling
from ada to irene
theres something, theres nothing
you haven't seen
tiny tv's on at 3, so serene no place to be
alone
so come on over yea
lets sit down a little while
some wine you will find the same things

by the time you read this, you kicked it in the sun
it was all that you could do, how could you refuse
and you kicked it in the sun
it was all that you could do
and you kicked it in the sun
it was all that you could do, how could you refuse
and you kicked it in the sun
it was wrong and it was rude
but you kicked it in the sun
it was wrong and it was rude, how could you refuse
and you kicked it in the sun

it's alright now i'm getting over getting mine
it's alright now i'm getting over getting mine

he seemed so unashamed of how he operated
corresponds to the facts that you want
despite his expectations he turned out mediocre
his master plan was so so
we're special in other ways
ways our mothers appreciate

that net does not
make me feel safe
all those holes make me nervous

he woke up late that morning
went to the window and saw the sun had stopped its shining so so
we're special in other ways
ways our mothers appreciate
we're special in other ways
ways our mothers appreciate
