Could a body close the mind down
Stitch a seam across the eye
If you can be good, you’ll live forever
If you’re bad, you’ll die when you die
Hearing only one true note
I'm the one and only sound
Unzip my body, take my heart out
'Cause I need a beat to give this tune

Ouu ou
Ouu ou
Ouu ou

(Unzip my heart)

Ouu ou
Ouu ou

And if I need a rhythm
It’ll be to my heart I listen
If it don’t put me too far wrong
(And if I and if I)
And if I need a rhythm
It’s gonna be to my heart I listen
If it don’t put me too far wrong

Everybody smile, please
Nobody pay no mind to me
Finger in position on the switch
A little flash photography

Taking a picture of you
(To my heart)
Taking a picture of
Taking a picture of me
Taking a picture

Ramalama, bang bang
Flash bang
Big bang
Bing bong
Ding dong
Dom dom do dom dom

With a hammer bang bang
Flash bang
Press gang
Bing bong
Ding dong
Hum hum ho Hum Hum

With a system of a bang bang
(With a system of with a system of with a system of a big bang, crash bang, big bang, big bang, crash bang)
Bang bang
Crash bang
Big bang
Boing boing
Boing boing
Dum dum do dum dum

Keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on

And if I and if I need a rhythm
(And if I need a rhythm)
Gonna be to my heart I listen
And if I and if I need a rhythm
(And if I and if I need a rhythm)
It's gonna be to my heart I listen
And if I and if I need a rhythm
(And if I and if I need a rhythm)
It's gonna be to my heart I listen
(Need a rhythm, need a rhythm, need a rhythm, need a rhythm, need a rhythm, need a rhythm)

And if I and if I need a rhythm

Keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on

This song has such a powerful, hypnotic rhythm and your editing works so well with it! I like the meshing of images that happens in a number of places...but I'm thinking particularly of the end where you have a string of scenes with water and blood. Love the pairing of the fast pan at 0:40 to the "die" lyric -- matches the vocal perfectly. And the "taking a picture of you" sequence with his box of slides and memories...that's so appropriate.

Thank you.

I'm so glad you picked up on the water/blood and liked the layering thing.

Thanks. I didn't want it to be literal, but I still wanted context to it. :)
