The Horrible Fanfare/Landslide/Exoskeleton Lyrics

Artist: Beck
Album: The Information

Ashes of ancients
the nations of pavement
The chain gang ? playing ?? to station
the themesong playing
the anthem of moment(?)
the horrible fanfare
the points are distorted
The public announcement
The towns are ???
???
??? are rampant
Talons in flight
Fake horizons at night.

The ?? lives
Where histeria kills
It's a ?? jungle
With maleria pills
Animals bleedin'
By a ??? from the night
Area kids wearing
scars like a stripe
Send up a signal
to the heavenly basket
When the poisons comin'
from the person your next to
Let the vultures of thought
pull the blood from the wound
Cause if a soul is a symptom
The condition is you

(unintelligable computerized woman's voice)

We know it's a ?? hand-me-down
This though is a purgery blindfold
When she crawls from the Himalayan rain
Where the birds of prey and the weapons on fire
She's ridin' a landslide down to me
Cuttin' the shackles off of me
Shakin' the dead birds from the trees
She's takin' the only air I breathe

Are you lost in a plate glass summer?
Don't call it a destiny (or "death of me") installment plan
She's puttin' the armor on my back
Rigging the codes although (could be "all through") the tracks
Takin' a knife out from the stack
She's bringin' the blood that I had back

Comin' to see it's all the same
Comin' to see the sun again
Comin' to wash it off again
Comin' to see herself again
Comin' to see herself again
Comin' to wash it off again

(weather report, woman's voice)
The ?/ reports from the ?? radio station
for 0400 GMT
NW 4
Slight showers
70 minutes
1 thousand and ten falling slowly
??? away
SWS 3 resent rain, 7 miles
1 thousand and 7
rising while slowly
Lowick, W4 resent showers
16 miles, 1 thousand and 2, rising slowly

(Talking:person one)
"I picture like an illuminated manuscript, ya know." "??? ... they hand do them ???... you'd have to have them hand done... each time" (stammering) "like change depending on what mood your in... like the best...or depending on like when you listen from a different age... could mean somethin' different"
(Talking:person two)
"I don't like it when they change" "....it....frightens me"
(Talking:person one)
"you want them to stay the same"
(Talking:person two)
"It makes me feel like someones pushing me from below...tryin' to put me... turn me over and put me down" "that's what it makes me feel like when they change."
"it has to tell you how to live... it (stammering) has, is an instruction guide. Subtle. It doesn't push. It nudges. It entices..or suduces. It has to encompass the whole world. Everything that has been. That is. And will be.
(Talking:person one)
thats.. thats true
(Talking:person two)
"..AND could take it into space. And that's why you build a space ship. Because ultimately that's what space travel is all about. Was sending up ships from earth into space. And not just in some space shuttle thats got all the foam comming off of it. You need your own, glowing, ya know multi-colored.... space ship. It would be inside the space ship and.. the space ship. You know what I'm saying?
Like an exoskeleton.
