Keep Watchin the Skies by The Dickies Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2001

I was always lonely
Just a face in the crowd, never thinking aloud
I was always silently hoping that things would change
Nobody ever told me
About the missing time
I was hoping to find all the pieces of reality I could rearrange

(And so I) keep watchin' the skies
Looking for somebody who can feel my pain, yeah yeah
I'm watchin' the skies
Is it a bird, or is it a plane?
If this is all sounding a little insane, you know why

So tell me, why the confusion
About the places I've been?
The circuitry in my skin
Is always sending me messages that I can't understand

They offer no solution
About just who they are
Could it be the Marklar?
Got me willed from a faraway time and another land
(And so I) keep watchin' the skies
Looking for somebody who can feel my pain, yeah yeah
I'm watchin' the skies
Is it a bird, or is it a plane?
If this is all sounding a little insane, you know why

I'm gonna wait 'til the sun sets
(Oh Britannia, Britannia)
Roswellian sunsets
(Oh Britannia, Britannia)
My country 'tis of thee
Don't alienate me

[Guitar solo]

(And so I) keep watchin' the skies
Looking for somebody who can feel my pain, yeah yeah
I'm watchin' the skies
Is it a bird, or is it a plane?
If this is all sounding a little insane, you know why

I'm looking for a bird or a boat or a plane
If this is all sounding a little insane, you know why
Tell me
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
