Picasso Moon (Live at the Meadowlands, October 16, 1989) lyrics

by

Bob Dylan


[Verse 1]
South of Market in the land of ruin
You get all manner of action
Tinsel tigers in The Metal Room
Stalking satisfaction
They got them packaged up for love and money
Tattooed tots and chrome spike bunnies
Check my conscience at the DMZ
And roll on in, going to roll in it, honey
But I get a feeling like when big things collide
Like the crack before the thunder, like I really ought to hide
Here comes Metal Angel, she looks ready to ride
What's that she’s trying to show me?
What's that she's trying to show me?

[Chorus]
Picasso Moon, shattered light
Diamond bullets ripping up the night
Picasso Moon, liberate me, yeah
Ah, life’s infinite diversity, oh yeah
Great, amazing, majesty, oh yeah
And it's bigger than a drive-in movie, ooh-wee
Bigger than a drive-in movie, ooh-wee

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Hanging ten out on space and time
Redefining distance
The next skull on your necklace is mine
Cheap for such assistance
I had a job trading bits for pieces
We'd make wrinkles, advertise them as creases
Please, find my resignation enclosed
Roll with it, roll with it, we going to roll in it
Dark Angel, What's bothering you?
So strange, you'll do me all that you do
Dark Angel, you're making me blue
I guess it doesn't matter
I guess it doesn't matter, hey

[Chorus]
Picasso Moon, blinding ball
I feel the quickening, I hear the call
Picasso moon, fill the sky, yeah
Amaze and blaze and mystify, yeah
With the lunar wind, I want to fly, oh yeah
And it’s bigger than a drive-in movie, oh my
Bigger than a drive-in movie, oh my

[Verse 3]
Strikes morning; the atomic dawn
Scramble back to cover
Quick, pop your mirrored sunglasses on
My little leather-winged lover
I see your face printed on my money
Your sultry ways really move me, honey
Heart of darkness, Yea-e-yea-e-e-hoo
Why’m I laughing? This sure ain't funny
Dark Angel, now just don’t start
You'll break my spirit, you'll wreck my heart
You must have a license for practicing that art
I don't presume to imagine
No, I, I don’t presume to imagine
[Chorus]
Picasso Moon, fractal flame
Blazing lace filling every frame
Picasso Moon, wheels within wheels, yeah
The bells are ringing, it's way unreal, oh yeah
Trying to tell y'all about just how it feels, oh yeah
And it's bigger than a drive-in movie, for real
Bigger than a drive-in movie, for real
Picasso Moon, shattered light
Diamond bullets tearing up the night
Picasso Moon, fill the sky, yeah
Picasso Moon, blinding ball
I feel the quickening, I hear the call
Picasso moon, fill the sky, yeah
Picasso Moon, fractal flame
Blazing lace filling every frame
Picasso Moon, liberate me, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Instrumental]
