Bill Callahan - Stepping Out For Air Lyrics


I watched the sky turn from blue to gray
I think I’m going to rain today
I sent all the help away
Help! help! Go away
A pound of hounds will keep the wolves at bay
Funny how the same landscape
Looked beautiful yesterday
Got to learn to see beauty
In the gray

I’m going to take a walk among the Zoloft pines
Where Tufted Lexapro sings a song so fine
I don’t care that I’m dressed like a rodeo clown
I’m stepping out for air so I don’t drown

The answer is not sitting in this chair
Snowshoe Hare it’s time to leave your lair

Now hand me down my riding crop
Hand me down my gliding cape
Hand me down my black boots that bebop
I’m stepping out for air

Well the wind blew up and played me
Like a cello bow, bow
And of the moorings and the morning
I just let go

The wind blew all day
It blew the sun down
It blew this world to spin around
And around and around

The wind blew all day
It blew the sun down
And it blew this horn that made this sound

Oh wind! Lift us up!
Take us back to where we’re from
Oh wind! Lift us up!
And Gabriel come blow your horn
Come blow your horn!

Gabriel! Come blow your horn!

Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!

Come blow your horn!
Come blow your horn!
Come blow your horn!

Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!
Gabriel!

Blow your horn!

I use my computer To pass the time Search for whatever Crosses my mind It really brings out the worst in me I read things...
