these are the CORRECT lyrics to the Sonic Youth song "Antenna" from The Eternal -- they are consistently wrong everywhere else


darling cruises the streets for pleasure

sky-scrapers in the dead love dawn

throbbing blood mind selfless creature

forever yours and then she’s gone


radios play nothing when she’s far away

tv antenna nothing gone to waste

radio transmitting nowhere falls away

she’s far away

every corner creeping panic

freak lightning in her abstract mind
rubber stamps and dreams of cash flow

wild blood ecstatic crime
radios play nothing when she’s far away

tv antenna rusting gone to waste

radio transmitting nowhere falls away

she’s far away
every day i feel more like her

street magic in the burning dawn  
out for blood my selfless lover

forever yours and then she’s gone


radios play nothing when she’s far away

tv antenna nothing gone to waste

radio transmitting nowhere falls away
she’s far away
she falls away
she’s far away
