Lazy Lightning > Supplication - 9/3/1976, Columbus Songtext
von Grateful Dead

Lazy lightning
That sleepy fire in your eyes
Is that desire in disguise?
I keep on trying but I, I can′t get through
Lazy lightning
I'd like to find the proper potion
To try to capture your emotion
You′re right beside me but I, I can't get through

You're a loop of lazy lightning
Just a loop of lazy lighting
Must admit you′re kind of frightening
But you really get me high


So exciting
When I hear your velvet thunder
Seems so near I start to wonder
Would you come closer if I, I asked you to?
So exciting
The way you′re messing with my reason
It's exception but pleasing
Tell me a lie and I will swear, I′ll swear it's true

You′re a loop of lazy lightning
Just a loop of lazy lighting
Must admit you're kind of frightening
But you really get me high

Rope of fire round my heart (Lightning)
Rope of fire ever tightening (Tightening)
Rope of fire round my heart (Lightning)
Come on, come on, lazy lightning
You′re a loop of lazy lightning, woo

You're a loop of lazy lightning
Just a loop of lazy lighting
Must admit you're kind of frightening


So exciting
The way your colors make me wanna race
You′re faster than a bat of light
I try and cry out but I, I want it too
So exciting
The way you holler and electrify me
Someday I know you′ll satisfy me
And all that lightning will be (My lightning too)
My lightning too

(My lightning too)
Loop of lazy lightning
(My lightning too)
My lightning too
(My lightning too)
Loop of lazy lightning
(My lightning too)
My lightning too
(My lightning too)
Come on, come on, lazy lightning
(My lightning too)
My lightning too
(My lightning too)
Loop, loop of crazy lightning
(My lightning too)
My lightning too
(My lightning too)
Woo

Dizzy ain't the word for the way that you make me feel now
Well, I need some indication, good Lord, if this is real now
Got to tell me, girl, now
Well, I′ve heard it said there's something wrong with my head now
Got to help me, girl, now
Could it be infatuation or am I just being misled now?

Little bolt of inspiration
Way you strike me now
It′s sparking my imagination
Got to like me now
Cause me such excitation
Won't you fight me now
You got to heed my supplication
Got to like me now
Little bolt of inspiration
Way you strike me now
Cause me such excitation
Come on and fight me now

Whoo
