Artist: R.E.M.
 

Your eyes are burning holes through me.
I’m gasoline. I’m burnin’ clean.
Twentieth century go to sleep.
You’re Pleistocene.
That is obscene.
That is obscene.

You are the star tonight.
Your sun electric, outta sight.
Your light eclipsed the moon tonight.
Electrolite.
You’re outta sight.

If I ever want to fly.
Mulholland Drive.
I am alive.
Hollywood is under me.
I’m Martin Sheen
I’m Steve McQueen
I’m Jimmy Dean

You are the star tonight.
Your sun electric, outta sight.
Your light eclipsed the moon tonight.
Electrolite.
You’re outta sight.

If you ever want to fly.
Mulholland Drive.
Up in the sky.
Stand on a cliff and look down there.
Don’t be scared.
You are alive.
You are alive.

You are the star tonight.
Your sun electric, outta sight.
Your light eclipsed the moon tonight.
Electrolite.
You’re outta sight.

Twentieth century go to sleep.
Really deep.
We won’t blink

Your eyes are burning holes through me.
I’m not scared
I’m outta here
I’m not scared
I’m outta here.
