Lazy Lightning - Live at Barton Hall, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 5/8/77
[Verse 1]
Lazy lightin', sleepy fire in your eyes
It's like desire in disguise
I keep on tryin' but I
I can't get through

Lazy lightin', I'd like to find the proper potion
That's gonna capture your emotion
You're right beside me but I
I can't get through

[Chorus]
You're a loop of lazy lightin'
A loop of lazy lightnin'
Must admit you're kinda frightenin'
But you really get me high

[Verse 2]
So exciting
When I hear your velvet thunder
You seem so near I start to wonder
Would you come closer if I
If I asked you to?

So inviting, the way you're messing with my reason
It's an obsession but it's pleasing
Tell me a lie and I will swear
I'll swear it's true

{Chorus]
You're a loop of lazy lightin'
A loop of lazy lightnin'
Must admit you're kinda frightenin'
A loop of lazy lightnin'

[Bridge]
Rope of fire in my eyes (lightin')
Rope of fire every time (lightnin')
Rope of fire 'round my heart (lightnin')
Well come on lazy lightnin'

You're a loop of lazy lightnin'

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Lazy lightnin'
Say you never strike the same place
I wanna double dose in any case
I'd fly a kite if I thought
Thought that would do

[Verse 3]
Lazy lightnin'
The way you are electrifies me
Someday you'll always satisfy me
And all that lightnin' will be my lightnin' too
My lightnin' too (my lightnin' too)

[Outro]
Loop of lazy lightnin' (my lightnin' too)
Loop of lazy lightnin' (my lightnin' too)
My lightnin' too (my lightnin' too)
Oh, come on lazy lightnin' (my lightnin' too)
My lightnin' too (my lightnin' too)
Loop, a loop of lazy lightnin' (my lightnin' too)
Be my lightnin' too (my lightnin' too)
