Notches on the Scale Songtext
von Telethon

In a dream, swear I heard Gabriel blow a sour note through the rain
It knocked me down a couple notches on the scale that day
Woolly mammoths marching feet foot through the banks of the LA
It knocked me down a couple notches on the scale that day
A bush burned and screamed ′What's the matter, man? ′Tis but a subtle turn of phrase'
It knocked me down a couple notches on the scale that day
For the sun is ever glistening and the ground it has always quaked
It knocked me down a couple notches on the scale that day

And I am the grand I am. Spontaneous


Looted a jacket made of leather from a boutique in Silver Lake
It knocked me down a couple notches on the scale that day
The starkness of fluorescent light. 2 AM in the Circle K
It knocked me down a couple notches on the scale that day
For even when there ain't no hope left, you can be the highway
It knocked me down a couple notches on the scale that day
And I am the grand I am. Spontaneous
