Les paroles de la chanson
« Brian wilson »
Barenaked Ladies

Drove downtown in the rain
nine thirty on a tuesday night
just to check out the late night
record shop
call it impulsive
call it compulsive
call it insane
but when I’m surrounded I just can’t stop
It’s a matter of instinct
it’s a matter of conditioning
it’s a matter of fact
you can call me Pavlov’s dog
Ring a bell and I’ll salivate
and how’d you like that?
Dr Landy tell me
you’re not just a pedagogue

Cause right now I’m
lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Well I am
lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Ohh

So I’m lying here
just staring at the ceiling tiles
And I’m thinkng about
what to think about
just listening and relistening
to smiley smile
And I’m wondering if this is
some kind of creative drought because

I’m lying in bed
just like Brian Wilson did
Well I am
lying in bed
Just like Brian Wilson did Ooh

ANd if you wanna find me
I’ll be out in the sand box
Just wondering where the hell
all the love is gone
I’m playing my guitar and building
castles in the sun, Woh, woh, woh
and singing "fun, fun, fun"

I’m lying in bed
just like Brian Wilson did
Well I am
lying in bed
Just like Brian Wilson did Ooh

I had a dream
that i was three hundred pounds
and thought I was very heavy
I floated till I couldn’t see the ground, ooh
somebody help me
I couldn’t see the ground
somebody help me
couldn’t see the ground
somebody help me
Because
I’m lying in bed
just like Brian Wilson did
Well I am
lying in bed
Just like Brian Wilson did Ooh

Drove downtown in the rain
nine thirty on a tuesday night
just to check out the late night
record shop
(late night record shop)
call it impulsive
call it compulsive
call it insane
but when I’m surrounded I just can’t stop
