Giant Sand - Cover Magazine (25th Anniversary Edition)

Blue Marble Girl

Did you ever have one of these days
Where you love the town you live in
But the blue marble girl, well
She can't even pull off her own spin?

Did you ever have one of these lives
Like you lived here forever
And that which doubles for the devil
Is only powder here in the big wind?

Blue marble girl
Shoves the day into the night
The red cap boy
Makes his way 'til he blows it right
Now blow it

Did you ever have one of these nights
Strung out like a string of cracked Christmas lights
And the light that needs your juice
Is the same one you're having to refuse?

Blue marble girl
Shoves the day into the night
And the red cap boy
Making his way until he blows it right (right)

If it's all the same
Is she better off to blame anyone?
Except what slipped on like powder
Through her own hands

Own hands
Own hands
Own hands
Own hands

Own hands
Own hands
