PATTI SMITH lyrics : "Glitter In Their Eyes "

(Smith/Ray)
It's been a while since I've seen your
face

It's been a while since I've walked this
place
I see the monkeys riding on their bikes

Racing through the impossible night

You say you're feeling like a new tree

Man they'll cut you from limb to limb
Pick your pocket with such delight
Shake it to the right

Shake it in the light

Oh can't you see the glitter

The glitter in their eyes
Oh can't you see the glitter
The glitter in their eyes


Genius stalking in new shoes
Have you got WTO blues

Dust of diamonds
Making you sneeze
Kids on rollers ready for

Running through the junkyards
Breezing through the halls
Racing through the malls

Walking through the walls
They'll strip your mind
Just for fun

Quoth the raven
Yum yum yum


Children children everywhere
Selling souls for souvenirs
They've been sold out like as not

Just for chunks of Ankgor Vat

They'll trade you up

Trade you down
Your body a commodity
Our sacred stage

Has been defaced
Replaced to grace
The marketplace

Dow is jonesing at the bit
42nd Disney Street
Ragged hearts unraveling

Look out kids
The gleam the gleam
All that glitters

Is not all that glitters
Is not all that glitters
