R.E.M. – Beat A Drum Lyrics 
Share
(Buck/Mills/Stipe)
The sun reflected in the back of my eye
I knocked my head against the sky
The dragonflies are busy buzzing me
Seahorses if we were in the sea
Halfway from coal, halfway to diamond
My fall knocked a mean chip out of me
I,m gathering as far as I can reach
We,re perched up on the precipice
And this is what I,ve seen
(chorus)
This is all I want, it,s all I need
This is all I am, it,s everything
[ Beat A Drum lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/r/rem/beat-drum/ ]
This is all I want, it,s all I need
A bluejay hectors from the felled catalpa tree
Doctorate in science and a theologian,s dream
The dragonflies are trying to lecture me
Seahorses if we were in the sea
(repeat chorus)
Beat a drum for me, like a butterfly wing
Tropical storm across the ocean
Don,t explain, I,m sure I,ll want to know
Don,t forget, we,re just halfway from coal
(repeat chorus)
