PETER GABRIEL LYRICS - Humdrum

"Humdrum"



I saw the man at J. F.K.

He took your ticket yesterday

In the humdrum



I ride tandem with a random

Things don't run the way I planned them

In the humdrum



Hey Valentina, do you want me to beg?

You got me cooking I'm a hard boiled egg

In the humdrum



Empty my mind - I find it hard to cope

Listen to my heart - don't need no stethoscope



(It) Seem' to me that television

She come to cut me a deep incision

In the humdrum



Empty my mind - I find it hard to cope

Listen to my heart - don't need no stethoscope



Out of woman come the man

Spend the rest of his life gettin back where he can

As a bow, so a dove

As below, so above

From the black hole

Come the tadpole

With the dark soul

In coal she burn, she burn



As I drove into the sun

Didn't dare look where I had begun

Lost among echoes of things not there

Watching the sound forming shapes in the air

From the white star

Came the bright scar

Our amobea

My little liebe schoen
