Beat Happening

Beat Happening is an American indie pop and punk rock band formed in Olympia, Washington in 1982. Calvin Johnson, Heather Lewis and Bret Lunsford have been the band's continual members. Beat Happening were early leaders in the American indie pop and lo-fi movements, noted for their use of primitive recording techniques, disregard for the technical aspects of musicianship, and songs with subject matters of a childish or coy nature. more »

I wanna tell the truth
I really do
I get so scared
When i try to talk to you
Cause you know me when i open up my mouth
And you see my eyes when i say what i say
When i say what i say
Yeah, when i say what i say
When i say what i say

But i don't know the truth
And i can't talk
I clap my hands
And go for a long walk
I cut my hair
I run down stairs
Run down stairs

I dance around in a small room
With the lights turned down
I think about you now
I walk around late at night
Cause i can't go to sleep cause you're not here
To turn out the light
Turn, turn, turn out the light
I guess it's all right
 
My hands hold the world
They hold my head
They hold my knees up to my chest
They tell the truth
They love you so
My hands would touch you but they don't know how
They don't know how
They don't know how
They don't know how
