Captain Beefheart - Clear Spot

Lyrics & Information

Taken from the fabulous 1972 album 'Clear Spot'.

Lyrics :-

I have to run so far to find a clear spot in the hot!
Sun's all hottin' and a rotten' hot
Swamp's all rotten 'n stinkin' uhh
Vegetation's hot
Sleepin' in a bayou on a old rotten cot
Can't find my kind of folks havin' fun
I have to run run run run
Run to find a clear spot
Can't shadow down, the sun big brown
Mosquitos 'n moccasins steppin' all around
'fraid I'm gonna get hit
Sun's all hottin' and a rottin' hot
Vegetation's hot
Sleepin' in a bayou on a old rotten cot
Can't find my kind of folks havin' fun
Got to run run run run
Run to find a clear spot
Can't shadow down, the sun big brown
Mosquitos 'n moccasins steppin' all around
'fraid I'm gonna get hit
'fraid I'm gonna get hit
I have to run so far to find a clear spot

A truly original talent - I love this track and its namesake album. Funky, funny, surreal and a touch sad at times. Worth a listen...

I don't need Captain Morgan, Kangaroo, Crunch or Planet as long as I've got Beefheart.
