MY OWN VERSION OF YOU LYRICS
All through the summers, into January
I've been visiting mosques and monasteries
Looking for the necessary body parts
Limbs and livers and brains and hearts
I'll bring someone to life,
I've been visiting mosques and monasteries
Looking for the necessary body parts
Limbs and livers and brains and hearts
I'll bring someone to life,
is what I wanna do
I'm gonna create
I'm gonna create
my own version of you
Well, it must be the winter of my discontent
I wish you'd've taken me
Well, it must be the winter of my discontent
I wish you'd've taken me
with you wherever you went
They talk all night and they talk all day
But not for a minute,
They talk all night and they talk all day
But not for a minute,
do I believe anything they say
I'm gon' bring someone to life,
someone I've never seen
You know what I mean,
You know what I mean,
you know exactly what I mean
I'll take the scar-faced Pacino
I'll take the scar-faced Pacino
and the Godfather vandal
Mix it up and attack,
Mix it up and attack,
and get a robot commander
If I do it all right and
If I do it all right and
put the head on straight
I'll be saved by the
creature that I create
I'll get blood from a cactus,
I'll get blood from a cactus,
gunpowder from ice
I don't gamble with cards and
I don't gamble with cards and
I don't shoot no dice
Can you look in my face
Can you look in my face
with your sightless eyes?
Can you cross your heart
Can you cross your heart
and hope to die?
I'll bring someone to life,
I'll bring someone to life,
someone for real
Someone who feels the way that I feel
I study Sanskrit and Arabic
Someone who feels the way that I feel
I study Sanskrit and Arabic
to improve my mind
I wanna do things for the
I wanna do things for the
benefit of all my my kind
I say to the willow tree,
I say to the willow tree,
"Don't wait for me"
I'm saying the hell with all
things that used to be
Well, I'm get into trouble,
Well, I'm get into trouble,
then I hit the wall
No place to turn,
No place to turn,
no place at all
I'll pick a number between a-one and two
And I ask myself,
I'll pick a number between a-one and two
And I ask myself,
"What would Julius Caesar do?"
I'll bring someone to life in
more ways than one
Don't matter how long it takes,
I'll bring someone to life in
more ways than one
Don't matter how long it takes,
it'll be done when it's done
I'm gon' make you play the
I'm gon' make you play the
piano like Leon Russell
Like Liberace,
Like Liberace,
like St. John the Apostle
I'll play every number that I can play
I'll see you maybe on Judgment Day
After midnight,
I'll play every number that I can play
I'll see you maybe on Judgment Day
After midnight,
if you still wanna meet
I'll be in Black Horse Tavern
on Armageddon Street
Two doors down,
not that far a walk
I'll hear your footsteps,
I'll hear your footsteps,
you won't have to knock
I'll bring someone to life,
I'll bring someone to life,
balance the scales
I'm not gonna get involved in
I'm not gonna get involved in
any insignificant details
You can bring it to St. Peter
You can bring it to Jerome
You can bring it all the way over
Bring it all the way home
Bring it to the corner where the children play
You can bring it to me on a silver tray
I'll bring someone to life, spare no expense
Do it with decency and common sense
Can you tell me what it means,
You can bring it to St. Peter
You can bring it to Jerome
You can bring it all the way over
Bring it all the way home
Bring it to the corner where the children play
You can bring it to me on a silver tray
I'll bring someone to life, spare no expense
Do it with decency and common sense
Can you tell me what it means,
to be or not to be?
You won't get away with fooling me
Can you help me walk that good land mile?
Can you give me the
You won't get away with fooling me
Can you help me walk that good land mile?
Can you give me the
blessings of your smile?
I'll bring someone to life,
I'll bring someone to life,
use all of my powers
Do it in the dark in the wee,
Do it in the dark in the wee,
small hours
I can see the history of the whole human race
It's all right there, it's carved into your face
Should I break it all down?
I can see the history of the whole human race
It's all right there, it's carved into your face
Should I break it all down?
Should I fall on my knees?
Is there light at the end of the tunnel,
Is there light at the end of the tunnel,
can you tell me please?
Stand over there by the cypress tree
Where the Trojan women and
Stand over there by the cypress tree
Where the Trojan women and
children were sold into slavery
Long before the first Crusade
Long before the first Crusade
Way back before England or
America were made
Step right into the burning hell
Where some of the best-known
Step right into the burning hell
Where some of the best-known
enemies of mankind dwell
Mr. Freud with his dreams,
Mr. Marx with his ax
See the raw hide lash rip the
See the raw hide lash rip the
skin from their backs
Got the right spirit,
Got the right spirit,
you can feel it you can hear it
You've got what they call
You've got what they call
the immortal spirit
You can feel it all night,
you can feel it in the morn
It creeps in your body,
It creeps in your body,
the day you were born
One strike of lightning
One strike of lightning
is all that I need
And a blast of electricity
that runs at top speed
Shimmy your ribs,
Shimmy your ribs,
I'll stick in the knife
Gonna jump-start
my creation to life
I wanna bring someone to life,
I wanna bring someone to life,
turn back the years
Do it with laughter and do it with tears
Do it with laughter and do it with tears
