See No Evil (03:23)
Television • The Blow Up
What I want
I want now
and it's a whole lot more
than 'anyhow'
I want to fly
fly a fountain
I want to jumpjumpjump
jump a mountain

lunderstandall... iseeno...
destructiveurges... iseeno...
itseemssoperfect... iseenoo...
i see... i see no... i see no evil

I get ideas
I get a notion
I want a nice little boat
made out of ocean.
I get your point.
You're so sharp.
Getting good reactions
with your ''BeBo'' talk.

Don't say unconscious
No don't say doom.
If you got to say it
let me leave this room
Cuz what I want
I want now
and it's a whole lot more
than 'anyhow.'

I'm runnin wild with the one i love
I see no evil
I'm runnin wild with the one-eyed ones
I see no evil
Pull down the future with the one you love
Pull down the future

Prove It (05:00)
Television • The Blow Up
The docks
The clocks
A whisper woke him up
The smell of water
Would resume.
The cave
The waves
Of light the unreal night.
That flat curving
Of a room.

Prove it... just the facts... the confidential
This case, this case, this case that i...
I've been workin' on so long...

First you creep
Then you leap
Up about a hundred feet
Yet you're in so deep
You could write the Book.
Chirpchirp
The birds
They're giving you the words
The world is just a feeling
You undertook.
Remember?

Now the rose
It slows
You in such colorless clothes
Fantastic! You lose your sense of human.
Project
Protect
It's warm and it's calm and it's perfect
It's too "too too"
To put a finger on
This case is closed.

Elevation (04:50)
Television • The Blow Up
The last word
is the lost word
Why don't you say so

I sleep light
on these shores tonite
I live light on these shores

Elevation... don't go to my head
Now you give me no trouble
and you give me no help
It is the clown
that works so well

I sleep light on these shores tonite.
I live light on these shores.

Elevation don't go to my head
Our lips are sealed our breath is burning
These cold wild seas have left us turning
But I sleep light on these shores tonite
I live light on these shores

Foxhole (05:05)
Television • The Blow Up
Soldier boy stands at full salute.
He wants your orders to execute.
Send him out-'neath the screaming red lights
In a narrow ditch for the funny fights.
Foxhole, foxhole too much danger.
Where's my gaurdian angle?-oh no
You show me the war, I don't know what for.
You show me the war, but the war's such a bore.
In the line of duty, in he line of fire
A heartless heart is my proper attire.
The flashing sword has neen explored
The perfect slice-perfect slice of life.
I feel the sheels hit-Moonlight web
Goodbye arms, and so long, head.
No more danger
Hello guardian angle.
Pin me down, go ahead it's a cinch.
You pin me down, you'll feel the pinch
as trained for fights
Foxhole, foxhole
Foxhole, foxhole.

Little Johnny Jewel (14:57)
Television • The Blow Up
Now Little Johnny Jewel,
Oh, he's so cool.
He has no decision.
He's just trying to tell a vision.
But some thought that this was sad
And others thought it mad.

They just scratching the surface;
JJ can do the floor kiss.
Was he on display?
No, no, not today.
All that guy ever said,
He said, "I want my little wing-head".
He half-asleep at night
Over his head, sensation of flight.
And he wake up dreaming...
Dreaming...
And he run down to the airport--
The rush. The roar.
And he crouched down behind a fence,
With a chest full of lights,
Then...
He loses his senses.

Oh Little Johnny Jewel.
He's so cool,
But if you see him looking lost,
You ain't gotta come on so boss!
And you know that he's paid;
You know that he's paid the price.
All you gotta do for that guy...
Is wink your eye.

Friction (05:02)
Television • The Blow Up
I knew it musta been some big set-up.
All the Action just would not let up.
It's just a little bit back from the main road
where the silence spreads and the men dig holes.
I start to spin the tale
you complain of my diction

You Give Me Friction
But I Dig Friction
You Know I'm Crazy About Friction

My eyes are like telescopes
I see it all backwards: but who wants hope?
If I ever catch that ventriloquist
I'll squeeze his head right into my fist.
something comes tracking down,
What's the prediction?

I'll betcha it's Friction...
Stop this head motion... set the sails.
You know all us boys gonna wind up in jail.
I don't wanna grow up
there's too much contradiction

Marquee Moon (14:46)
Television • The Blow Up
I remember
how the darkness doubled
I recall
lightning struck itself.
I was listening
listening to the rain
I was hearing
hearing something else.

Life in the hive puckered up my night,
the kiss of death, the embrace of life.
There I stand neath the Marquee Moon Just waiting,
Hesitating...
I ain't waiting

I spoke to a man
down at the tracks.
I asked him
how he don't go mad.
He said "Look here junior, don't you be so happy.
And for Heaven's sake, don't you be so sad."

Well a Cadillac
it pulled out of the graveyard.
Pulled up to me
all they said get in.
Then the Cadillac
it puttered back into the graveyard.
And me,
I got out again.
