Butthole Surfers - The Colored FBI Guy Lyrics






I don't know just how it started
We got covered up of the sky
his body and his mind have parted
you can see it happen in his eyes
I don't know just what they're for
cones and rods and bars and arrows
dots and dashing eyes that roll
right into sight and out,
out of control

I don't know just what they're there for
flashing lights in passing mirrors
dashing eyes with dots that roll
right in my mouth and out,
out of control

I don't know just how it happened
there was glass in from of the sky
my body and my face got shattered
I hope I'm together when I die

    Do you ever take a shit and when you go to wipe it feels like liquid and you pull your hand back in fear of getting liquid shit on your hand, that just now happened to me

    From when the surfers started to when the released Pepper, their sound matured from psycodelic punk to psycodelic folk. Amazing

    Try slowing it down to .75 speed and crank it, your mind will surely depart. Back in the day I copied it to tape Too slow and thought it was suppose to be that way my entire life.

  20. T.... M....

    I dont know what id ever do without the surfers

  21. f.... ....

    One of the great MKUltra experimental songs - even better than mmmmmbop!

  22. t.... ....

    thanks to my buddy scott who turned me on to the Buttholes back in 1990. he forced widowermaker on me and i haven't looked back since!

    t.... ....

    hmmm....I hope it was me....I remember not being able to shut the hell up about these guys during my acid gnawing days (daze)...my friends hated me for it

  23. Z.... ....

    That's the British version of the WidowerMaker (1404 was a reference to the address of the house they lived at around that time), I think. It's called 'The Colored FBI Guy' on the American version. The track listing is also quite different; with 'Helicopter' being at the start instead of the end.

  24. T.... ....

    Wasnt this called 1401?

  25. R.... A....

    no worries, fellow, They'll have all their own weird shit and trippy lives that will provide them with plenty of issues to get old and grumpy about when they watch other people grow up. It's awesome. It's like a cycle that never ends!

  26. J.... D....

    Just realized the lyrics are about being high, and i've been listening to this album for years -.-

  27. t.... .....

    always loved this

  28. S.... A....

    all ways loved this tune.

  29. M.... W....

    most bands from 90-->now, you can pretty-much just lump into either 1 Surfers song or record.

  30. B.... O....

    @ Gr8trEliminatr ....going to concerts back in the 70s was an EXPERIENCE. Nothing like today, some of my best memories, Billy Preston, Nazareth, Deep Purple, Robin Trower, Heart, Rare Earth, the list goes on,

  31. G.... ....

    @turkeypantz Indeed, I also envy the older generation to actually witness the music and concerts.
    A totally different world.
    Yet it's great to hear story's about the "ol' days".

  32. H.... D....

    @turkeypantz thats the same way I heard it ...how funny same year too... yet I never new until today whom sung this

  33. T.... M....

    transcendental beauty

  34. t.... ....

    first heard this on a copy of a copy of a copy of a cassette, in 1991. I envy that today's youth can get any music so easily, from the internet. But I feel bad that they can never know the feeling, of the right-of-passage, in acquiring "hard to find" music like this song was for me.

    t.... ....

    Truth...

  35. T.... ....

    @ThePharmakia lol I loved that movie! these kind of movies got such a boost from IFC channel.

  36. K.... ....

    Reminds me of San Fransisco in the late '80's What a great time that was for me.

  37. R.... W....

    remywood81...me too...that was a great flick wasn't it?

  38. j.... ....

    there was glass in front of the sky.

  39. r.... ....

    First heard this in Richard Linklater's Slacker.

  40. A.... R....

    His body and his mind had parted. You could see it happen in his eyes.

  41. W.... ....

    dots that roll right in and ouuuuuuuut of control.

  42. P.... ....

    Yeah! My favorite song by them.
