Safe As Milk - Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

Well my cigarette died when I washed my face

Dropped some drops in an ashtray hit a wrong place

Woman at my blinds to see spiders spinning lines

It’s a safe as milk, it’s a safe as milk

I never heard it put quite that way

The shape I’m in is a gone a way

They called a day, they called a day

Yesterday’s paper headlines approach

Rain gutter teasing, rusty cat sneezing

Soppin wet hammer, dusty and wheezing

Lusty alley whining trashcan blues

Children running after rainbows stocking poor

Gracious ladies nylon hanging on to line

Jumping onto leg looking mighty fine

Sorrows lollipop lands stick-broken on a dark carnival ground

Pop up toaster cracklin

Aluminium rhythm and sound

Every day pencil lazy and sharp

The icebox inside looking like a harp

Electric bulb been out for years

Freezer fumes feed the gas tears

Cheese in the corner with a mile long beard

Bacon blue bread dog eared…

I may be hungry but I sure ain’t weird
