Lyrics for Album: Imaginos [1988]
  
               
  27620>I am becalmed in virtue
  Lost to nothing on a bay of dreams
  Warm weather and a holocaust
  The tears of God flow as I bleed
 
 
  Left to die by two good friends
  Abandoned me and put to sleep
  On a shore where oyster beds
  Seem plush as down
  And ripe enough for the Luxor dream
 
 
  Recall the dream of Luxor
  How fluids will arrive
  As if by call or schedule
  Resume through the morning tide
  Where entry is by seaweed gate
  And plan the plan of dreams
  To lose oneself in reverb
  In all that is and all that seems
 
 
  So ladies, fish and gentlemen
  Here's my angled dream
  See me in the blue sky bag
  And meet me by the sea
 
 
  The oyster boys are swimming now
  To claim me back from the dead
  The creatures back from vertigo
  They fear to fall but haven't fell
  Will reclaim tries and try again
 
 
  The oyster boys are swimming now
  Hear them chatter on the tide
  Of the lost and language lost
  Hear them chatter on the tide
 
 
  We understand, we understand, we understand
  And so do I
  We understand, we understand
  But fright is real
  And so am I
  So ladies, fish and gentlemen
  Here's my angled dream
  See me in the blue sky bag
  And meet me by the sea
 
 
  The entry to lost vestibule
  Opens on the bay
  An instant shape of mercury
  Lost and then retained
  An instant is an eyelash
  Caught on the tide
  Imaginos!
  Below this bay
  And then besides,
 
 
  The oyster boys are swimming now
  One deal is what we made
  Forest keys and whirlwind cold
  Green trees too and keys of gold
  Even locks that won't explode
  When the skies become a scroll
  Having lost its interest
  See that's the deal we made
  Just to join the Öyster Cult
  The Blue Öyster Cult
 
 
  We understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
 
 
  We understand, we understand, we understand
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult
  We understand, we understand, we understand
