Lyrics

[urbpan]

When I posted my last snapshot (of a fluorescent light panel) I skipped songs until I got to "Fluorescenses" by Stereolab. Yes I'm terribly clever. Then just now I turned on the music again and heard the coda at the end of the song. One of Stereolab's singers speaks French as a first language, so when she sings in English she accents words slightly strangely, the emphasis often falling on an unexpected syllable. More than once I've listened to one of their songs a dozen times then all of a sudden understand something new. This time I heard this:

i'm ok
i feel good
i can breathe
fill my soul
i'm ok
feeling good
why do i
swim in blood?
