Peter Gabriel
Humdrum
[Verse 1]
I saw the man at J.F.K
He took your ticket yesterday
In the humdrum, in the humdrum
I ride tandem with a random
Things don't run the way I planned them
In the humdrum, in the humdrum
Hey Valentina, do you want me to beg?
You got me cooking, I'm a hard boiled egg
In the humdrum, in the humdrum

[Chorus]
Empty my mind
I find it hard to cope
Listen to my heart
Don't need no stethoscope

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Seem' to me that television
She come to cut me a deep incision
In the humdrum, in the humdrum

[Chorus]
Empty my mind
I find it hard to cope
Listen to my heart
Don't need no stethoscope
[Outro]
Out of woman comes the man
Spend the rest of his life getting back when he can
As a bow, so a dove
As below, so above
From the black hole come the tadpole
With the dark soul, in coal she burn
She burn as I drove into the sun
Didn't dare look where I had begun
Lost among echoes of things not there
Watching the sound forming shapes in the air
From the white star, come the bright car
Our amobea, my little liebe schoen
