"Static" by Beck off of the album "Mutations"

Let me know if any of the lyrics are wrong or if you notice any blips in the audio.

It's so easy to laugh at yourself

And all those jokes

Have already been written

Seems like another vain attempt

To let yourself fall out of the oven

Holy mountains

They look so tired

And it's a perfect day

To lock yourself inside

Who you fooling' with the fools are right

It's the same thing

But it's almost as different

Hard to tell when it pacifies your mind

Leaves you stranded with a broken engine

Lazy desert looks so mangled

Let me drown in a convalescent bliss

Get up from your bed of rest

Been a long time since you've lived

But the static in your mind

Leaves you hollow and unkind

With a shock electric wave

Turns you on

You've been flunked out

Of the devils house

Delinquent hygienes are so abrasive

Some distortion that's never been known

On the treadmill

You've been running' forever

Holy mountains, they look so tired

And it's a perfect day

To lock yourself inside

The word 'static' is the noise due to a lack of a signal, but here I think it is also about being unable to move. There is a desire to move, but the will may not be enough. If you have ever lived stuck in a rut, feeling the cruelty of your own self-deception, reproach, and without meaning, then this song will resonate.

Also Beck is more powerful than Chuck Norris. ALL chuck norris jokes pale at the Sound of Beckisms that bring hope to earth and make plants flower. he can basically do anything chuck can do without moving and is chuck norris's only fear. also beck can smile without smiling. He was created before Adam doenst use chairs because he hovers in lotus position. in fact he drives a Lotus he built out of guitarpicks. the man is just better than sliced bread and far more nutritious!

There is a cricket and more guitar at the end of the first half that can be heard at 4 times max volume. you should have cut at 4:16 to copy to 4:18 put the 4:20/cricket inside the block.
