Lyrics: I've had it with this town I never saw those shifting skies I never saw the ground Or the sunset rise I want to live on an abstract plain
I'm building a frame A place to put my ten-yard stare Thinking of that paint Painted in plein-air I want to live on an abstract plain
I need a new adress I want some new terrain Is it North or South? I want to live on an abstract plain
I could sit on the roof On top of that abstract house See my abstract view An abstract mouse I want to live on an abstract plain
I need a new address Tell me I'm not insane Is it up or down? I want to live on an abstract plain
