Purple People (Live) [Plugged Tour 1998]

[Verse 1]

Well, hey do you do judo when they surround you?

A little mental yoga, will they disappear?

It's grim but never dubious as motives go

One thing she always promise, promises a show

[Chorus]

Thunder wishes it could be the snow

Wishes it could be as loved as she can be

These gifts are here for her, for you, for me

[Verse 2]

I watch me be this other thing and never know

If I'm marooned or where the purple people go

Then lily white matricide from vicious words

It doesn't leave a scratch, so therefore, no one's hurt

[Chorus]

Thunder wishes it could be the snow

Wishes it could be as loved as she can be

These gifts are here for her, for you, for me

[Bridge]

And don't you know? The nurses make it clear

Just when you escape, you have yourself to fear

A restaurant that never has to close

Breakfast at every hour, it could save the world

[Verse 3]

So hey, do you do judo in your finery?

An angel's face is tricky to wear constantly

[Chorus]

Thunder wishes it could be the snow

Wishes it could be as loved as she can be

These gifts are here for her, for you, for me

[Outro]

For her, for her, mmm...
