Bush, Kate - How To Be Invisible Lyrics






I found a book on how to be invisible
Take a pinch of keyhole
And fold yourself up
You cut along a dotted line
You think inside out
And you're invisible

Eye of Braille
Hem of anorak
Stem of wallflower
Hair of doormat

I found a book on how to be invisible
On the edge of the labyrinth
Under a veil you must never lift
Pages that you must never turn
In the labyrinth
You stand in front of a million doors
And each one holds a million more
Corridors that lead to the world
Of the invisible
Corridors that twist and turn
Corridors that blister and burn

Eye of Braille
Hem of anorak
Stem of wallflower
Hair of doormat
Is that the wind from the desert song?
Is that the autumn leaf falling?
Or is that you walking home?

Is that the wind from the desert song?
Is that the autumn leaf falling?
Or is that you walking home?
Is that a storm in the swimming pool?

You take a pinch of keyhole
And fold yourself up
You cut along a dotted line
You think inside out
You jump 'round three times
You jump into the mirror
And you're invisible

  1. V.... M....

    Magnifique album. Merci. Nina.

  2. K.... T....

    kate.... pure white witchcraft

  3. P.... ....

    Please take a look at my channel for a magical tour of over 60 of Kate Bush's songs, including How To Be Invisible. The playlist's meant to tell a story/create a mood rather than being a list of most famous songs although certainly some of those are there.

  4. V.... F....

    I want to be invisible

  5. N.... B....

    I've had this double CD for years and this song has suddenly moved to the front of my KB playlist.

  6. K.... C....

    if this came top now it would destroy these new music hoes who need to be half naked to sell music...#TEAMKATEBUSH

    K.... C....

    Nudged to the edge definitely. With more than a few falling deep into the pit of oblivion.

  7. W.... G....

    Weltklasse !

  8. B.... B....

    Marvellous stuff

  9. w.... ....

    Remastered soon, baby!

    w.... ....

    I have the remastered on vinyl now! But i blew up my amplifier last week :[

  10. C.... L....

    That is one sexy guitar lick. Ndun dun dun dun dun dun dun duhn. (I don't know how to write guitar sounds)

    C.... L....

    Guitarist is Kate's husband, Dan McIntosh

  11. T.... S....

    Great singer ❤️

    T.... S....

    Singer AND song-writer. 10 albums, 10 masterpieces.

  12. F.... N....

    The sound background of this one is so sophisticated. EarOrgasm... Fan for years (decades) of Kate, I only discovered Aerial this week. Unforgiven I am. What a shock... And then (I am listening Youtube upside down, waiting for my ordered Aerial CD), I have switched to Sunset. What a slap in my face, in my soul.... the Flamenco part has jumped on me, stunning it is, perfect timing. And I am not a novice in music (55 yo). Such a Musical Genius. Practically, only Beethoven, in a different way of course, can compare. Il is due to the abilitly to CREATE, not COPY, even very well.Kate Bush is an unique genius.

    F.... N....

    I just discovered 50 Words For Snow last week

  13. P.... ....

    Maybe she should have released this as a second single. I know that it wouldn't have done huge numbers - it's too ethereally funky with no huge crescendo for that - but I'd have liked it to have been a single for posterity's sake so that it got more noticed as the moodily magical thing that it is. It's her latter day Cornflake Girl really. All gunslinger western in the background.

  14. t.... L....

    How can she write and perform something as awesome as this and then on the same album come up with some self indulgent crap like PI ?

    t.... L....

    It took 12 years to make the album. There might have been many years between the songwriting. I like Pi actually - it's quite like The Red Shoes ecclesiastical-style material.

  15. S.... H....

    Am the invisible woman people just look right though me like am not there😔😠

    S.... H....

    Sam Holden when the world doesn't notice me or hear me, I know the universe is telling me that it is I who must give those things to myself...I listen to my intuition and obey my gut instincts. in the meantime, I see you!😘 every gal has been there.

    S.... H....

    Things you can do when you're invisible xx dont give up

  16. K.... W....

    Too unknown, in the light of probably being one of Kate's best songs..!

  17. J.... S....

    Bush is tops with me!

  18. J.... S....

    I ♥ Bush

  19. J.... b....

    Doors are opened. Kate is great. Thx

  20. L.... ....

    Top Gear UK, Season 16 Episode 00 (Middle East Special) at around 21 minutes. This plays. 

    L.... ....

    that's why I'm here 😂

    L.... ....

    It's possibly one of my favorite "driving songs" ever since i heard it - on top gear no less! It just sets the mood so perfectly! <3

    L.... ....

    me too, better late than never ;-) @ulrich langley

  21. F.... J....

    My favourite track of all time, no question.

    F.... J....

    @Stevie Malcolm Oooh Stevie! I am flattered, but I have to tell you, I am a 65 year old married male, with white hair and bad habits. Otherwise I would take up your offer like a shot. In another life .....

  22. D.... G....

    As roberto benigni would say: it's a sad and beautiful song

    D.... G....

    Dani G. Shved it’s not sad ... it’s uplifting... for some

  23. P.... C....

    Kate has it all
