It's in my sig, from the Pavement song, "Motion Suggests",

"And a voice could soothe you
Captivate the senses like a ginger ale rain"

"Sitting on a hillside, watching all the people die
I feel much better on the other side" - Love, The Red Telephone

"With neon darkness shimmering through the haze
A sea of faces rippling in the heat
And through that namesless changing crowd
A sweet vibration seemed to fill the air" - The Zombies, Hung Up on a Dream

Dim chandelier awaken me
To a song dissolved in the dawn" - Beach Boys, Surf's Up

Because when you do
Go against nature
It's part of nature too

For an extra useless eye"
