************************************************************************** LYRICS: Verse 1: Give me a minute 'Cos i'm wrapped in superstition Pour me a chemical to take away the edge Pre 1: Don't make up anything that's breaking all your fingers Just slap around a bit of what it takes to pledge Verse 2: Carry out another stone as a slave Ask general Know-it-all "Who's juggling the earth?" Pre 2: Tease all the natives that will walk across your grave And shove aside your nation all for what it's worth Chorus: Beat yourself blind (x6) An open eyes and a closed mind Verse 3: Look at the suit in suspended animation A faded outline that used to be a man Pre 3: A piece of paper that's fallen out a window Has got a better chance to know where it will land Chorus: Beat yourself blind (x6) An open eyes and a closed mind Bridge: To blead in vain To blead in vain under my eyes are painted skies Verse 4: Down at the boneyard they're diggin up the relics Handfulls of parasites thrown into machines I got the phone call they're tearin down the mission The zombies had a ball But don't know what it means Beat yourself Blind
