Live in Stereo
Words by Steve Taylor
Music by Peter Furler

 

This field guide's got no soul,
Digging for the sacred
In a man-made hole.

The soil gets harder.
The shovel won't behave.
I just dug myself
Into a six foot grave.

I need a new dimension.
Got to Supersize.
A Jacobean ladder
To a parallel prize.

The walk's by faith.
The sight lines lie.
How am I gonna tag along
With one tin ear
And one glass eye?
Well I...

I can't get there from here
When every sense is in mono.
Walk by faith, You appear.
I wanna live in stereo.

I can't get there from here
Without a God-directed go.
Walk by faith, You appear.
I've gotta live in stereo.

I quit, I fold, I'm done.
Trying to scale Everest
Sherpa-less
Ain't fun.

The best-laid plans
Are in my other pants.
The base camp's buried
In an avalanche.

I need a new dimension.
Got to Supersize.
A Jacobean ladder
To a parallel prize.

The walk's by faith.
The lone wolf dies.
How am I gonna follow you
With blue man ears
And snow blind eyes?
Well I...

I can't get there from here
When every sense is in mono.
Walk by faith, You appear.
I wanna live in stereo.

I can't get there from here
Without a God-directed go.
Walk by faith, You appear.
I've gotta live in stereo.

La la la la la la la la la la.
(La-la la-la la-la la-la la-la la-la la-la la-la.)
La dee dah dee dah.

La la la la la la la la la la.
(La-la la-la la-la la-la la-la la-la la-la la-la.)
Ah, la dee dah dee dah.

La la la la la la la.
(La-la la-la la-la)
La la la la la la la.
(La-la la-la la-la)
(Walk by faith...)

I can't get there from...
I can't get there...

(La dee da.)
I can't get there from here
(La la la la.)
When every sense is in mono.
(La dee da.)
Walk by faith, You appear.
(La la la la.)
I wanna live in stereo.

(La dee da.)
I can't get there from here
(La la la la.)
Without a God-directed go.
(La dee da.)
Walk by faith, You appear.
(La la la la.)
I've gotta live in stereo.
