Peter Gabriel - Perspective lyrics
Your rating:
I need perspective 'cos I'm facing the wall I need perspective 'cos I'm not that tall I need perspective heard the trumpet call Don't trust my eyes want to know where things fall I need perspective party time for the newly wed I need perspective colours ran as the images bled I need perspective like confetti on the flower bed Don't trust my eyes priest crying he's got fire in his head Oh gaia, if that's your name Treat you like dirt, but I don't want to blame Oh gaia, the wind heats the fire and blows the ash away I need perspective sitting in a long long hall I need perspective staring at the white white wall I need perspective waiting for the phone to call Don't trust my eyes there's one thing I've got to tell you all I need perspective to see through red red skies I need perspective to carry merchandise I need perspective I don't trust my eyes Don't trust my eyes and I don't like surprise Oh gaia, etc I used to be industrial giant Sitting in a garden full of chemical plant Trying very hard to get you off my mind Acting like any man Taking you for everything I can Just the same, the same as all my kind -- so blind I need perspective
