Etch‐a‐Sketch Songtext
von Bill Lloyd

Stereonaut, screen laid flat
Twist a dollar, find where you′re at
You don't need to be Magellan to read this map
But you better hurry up because it ain′t gonna last
It's either right or left or up and down
Baby's first steps took her straight to town
Diagonal move into a wedding gown
Alas, erased when the world unwound


Etch-a-sketch
One shake and you′ve lost the plot
Etch-a-sketch
One false move and you′ll never stop
Blaming yourself for what you couldn't keep
I′m like an etch-a-sketch and love is cheap

Now some say Da Vinci kept one by his bed
He made it out of goat bones, glass and lead
It scrambled up the thoughts inside his head
They got shaken away when the moon turned red

Etch-a-sketch
Vector nine and you've lost the plot
Etch-a-sketch
One false move and you′ll never stop
Blaming yourself for what you couldn't keep
Like an etch-a-sketch and love is cheap

Etch-a-sketch
Etch-a-sketch
Etch-a-sketch
