Red Mosquito (San Francisco 2006-07-18) Songtext
von Pearl Jam

Watched out the window with a red mosquito
I was not allowed to leave the room
I saw the sun go down and now it′s coming up
Somewhere in the time between

I was bitten, must have been the devil
He was just paying me a little visit
Reminding me of his presence
Letting me know he's a-waiting, oh

Red man′s your neighbor, call it behavior
While you're climbing up slippery hills
Two steps ahead of him, punctures in your neck
Hovering just above your bed
Hovering just above your bed

I was bitten, must have been the devil
He was just paying me a little visit
Reminding me of his presence
And letting me know he's a-waiting
He′s always waiting, oh


If I had known then what I know now
If I had known then what I know now
If I had known then what I know now
If I had known then what I know now

Thank you, thanks a lot
Hello
Hello
Hello to the people in the back, hello
Hey

It′s a beautiful night
It was a beautiful day, we were in the water
And hung out on the beach
And then got to watch a band, Sonic Youth
I think we all forgot we had to work tonight
But this doesn't feel like work, it′s just great
So, once again thanks to Sonic Youth for playin' this tour with us
It means a lot

And I also wanna thank a guy called Dougie Boy Mckennan
For takin′ me around for two hours, lookin' for surf that didn′t exist today
But there's always tomorrow
I always think what's breaking a day was my heart, but -
We′ll continue with this next song and it′s called "Nothing As It Seems"
