Lyrics
Einstein on the Beach
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Albert's always sincere, he's a sensitive type
His intentions are clear, he wanna be well-liked
But if everything is nothing, then are we anything?
Is it better to be better than to be anything?
And Albert's vision is blooming uncontrolled
All his wings are slowly sinking
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
All the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallen off a wall
Who'll never be together again
Einstein's down on the beach staring into the sand
Cause everything he believes in is shattered
What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway-ay
We all get burned as:
One more sun comes sliding down the sky
One more shadow leans against the wall, and
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallen off a wall
Who'll never be together again
Albert's waiting in the sun
On a field American
For the cause of some inflated form of hit and run
One more sun comes sliding down the sky
One more shadow leans against the wall, and
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallen off a wall
Who'll never be together again
Albert's fallen on the sun
Cracked his head wide open
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallen, fallen
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallen off a wall
Who'll never be together again
No never be together again
No no never never never again, uh huh
What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway
