Myopia - lyrics

I can`t see, I can`t sleep
I can`t swim, I can`t talk
Can`t write, I can`t count
I can`t fly, can`t play today

Take your things and run away
Grab yourself a holiday
Fix your nose and change your name
Thyroid eyes they diagnose

Myopia...

A red light, stomach ache
Relax but don`t be late
It`s too loud I`ve disappeared
I can`t drink, I can`t tell the time

Epic hero Gilgamesh
Battling with a lioness
One man war against the odds
Spectacles that break because

Myopia...

I don`t think I can afford ya
You make me ugly, anyhow
I think I see a car before me
Or maybe I've just hit a cow

I don`t think I can afford ya
You make me ugly, anyhow
I think I see a car before me
Or maybe I've just hit a cow

I don`t think I can afford ya
You make me ugly, anyhow
I think I see a car before me
Or maybe I've just hit a cow

I don`t think I can afford ya
You make me ugly, anyhow
I think I see a car before me
Or maybe I've just hit a cow

Myopiaa....

You gave the credits to the musicians but you used the work of several photographers without any reference. You edited a portrait made by Alain from Paris (website "High Myopic Girls" (from 1.46 to 2.04) and you edited a portrait of model Marleen made by me (weblog "Ladies behind crystal veil"). It would be the right thing to add this information to the acknowledgements. Rob van Dijk, Enschede, The Netherlands. Nice video, by the way.

@lentilux - thanks for you tolerance, and I have just added the missing information - note that I have also used some of ýour pics in my video "Comedian Harmonists - Tante bleib hier" - should I also add it in the description of that video?

This song always makes me think of the scene in Me Myself & Irene in which Jim Carrey, as Hank/Charlie, does indeed hit a cow!
