Laurie Anderson - Smoke Rings lyrics

Buenos noches Senores y Senoras. Bienvenidos.

La primera pregunta es: Que es mas macho,

pineapple o knife?

Well, let's see. My guess is that a pineapple is more

macho than a knife. Si! Correcto!

Pineapple es mas macho que knife.

La segunda pregunta es: Que es mas macho,

lightbulb o schoolbus?

Uh, lightbulb?

No! Lo siento, Schoolbus es mas macho que lightbulb.

Gracias. And we'll be back in un momento.

Well I had a dream and in it

I went to a little town

And all the girls in town were named

Betty.

And they were singing:

Doo doo doo doo doo.

Doo doo doo doo doo.

Ah desire! It's cold as ice

And then it's hot as fire.

Ah desire! First it's red

And then it's blue.

And everytime I see an iceberg

It reminds me of you.

Doo doo doo doo doo.

Doo doo doo doo doo.

Que es mas macho iceberg or volcano?

Get the blanket from the bedroom

We can go walking once again.

Down in the bayou

Where our sweet love first began.

I'm thinking back to when I was a child -

Way back to when I was a tot.

When I was an embryo -

A tiny speck. Just a dot.

When I was a Hershey bar -

In my father's back pocket.

Hey look! Over there! It's Frank Sinatra

Sitting in a chair. And he's blowing

Perfect smoke rings

Up into the air. And he's singing:

Smoke makes a staircase for you

To descend. So rare.

Ah desire!

Ah desire!

Ah desire! So random So rare

And everytime I see those smoke rings

I think you're there.

Que es mas macho staircase o smoke rings?

Get the blanket from the bedroom

We can go walking once again.

Down in the boondocks

Where our sweet love first began.

Ooo I'm gonna follow you.

Out in the swamps and into town.

Down under the boardwalk

Track you down.

Doo doo doo doo doo.

Doo doo doo doo doo.

Doo doo doo doo doo.

Doo doo doo doo doo
