lirik lagu big thief - beautiful world
[verse 1]
eastbound going 65
the desert wind is blowing
my dog is sitting by my side
he don’t care where we’re going
taking the south route this time
back from california
stopping in the old mine town
bisbee, arizona
[verse 2]
we get in late at night
climbed the stairs up to our room
the hotel is a tired old girl
you can still smell the perfume
of a hundred years ago
she was decked out, painted new
and they all wore hats and jackets
and said, “how do you do?”
[chorus]
it’s a f~cked~up world
why must everything be conquerеd?
but it, it’s so beautiful
let’s blow a hole in thе center of it
[verse 3]
we wake up to the golden dawn
black coffee and a bagel
i put some b~tter on it
and follow a winnebago
down a winding road for hours
we lose signal
there’s no power out here
just the power of a sphere
and the wild grass and my desert ass
[verse 4]
i notice something in the sky
my dog and i pull over
it looks like the tip of the moon, but it’s definitely closer
and it’s not moving
it’s just hovering, still
up above the mountain
in that desert heat i feel a chill
then come the border patrol
and i ask, “what is that thing?”
and he says, “that’s a camera and it’s tethered to an invisible string”
[chorus]
it’s a f~cked~up world
why must everything be conquered?
but it, it’s so beautiful
let’s build a fence in the center of it
[instrumental break]
[verse 5]
standing there feeling tripped out
and just wanting to cry
and that disconnected sharpness where everything is dry
i hear the ratchet of the call
two wheels turning in the dirt
an old man on his bicycle, out of nowhere
soaking through his shirt
he gets down and he comes over and says
“i’m on a long journey. i’m riding my bike clear across the country. i’m 85. my name is bob. i’m gonna make the guinness book.”
i said, “it’s nice to meet you, bob.”
and then i took his hand and shook
[chorus]
it’s a beautiful world
why must everything be conquered?
but it, it’s so beautiful
and i’m riding to the center of
this f~cked~up world
why must everything be conquered?
but it, it’s so beautiful
and i’m riding to the center of it
