Lazy Lightnin'

Grateful Dead · Dick's Picks, Vol. 20: Landover, Maryland And Syracuse, New York, [2004]

Lazy lightnin' sleepy fire in your eyes it's like desire in disguise

I keep on tryin' but I, I can't get through

Lazy lightnin' I'd like to find the proper potion

That's gonna capture your emotion

You're right beside me but I, I can't get through



You're a loop of lazy lightnin', just a loop of lazy lightnin'

Must admit you're kinda frightnin' but you really get me high

So exciting, when I hear your velvet thunder

You seem so near I start to wonder

Would you come closer if, if I asked you to?



So inviting, the way you're messing with my reason

It's an exception but it's pleasing

Tell me a lie and I will swear, I'll swear it's true



You're a loop of lazy lightnin'

(Lazy lightnin')

Just a loop of lazy lightnin'

(Lazy lightnin')

Must admit you're kinda frightening

Just a loop of lazy lightnin'



Put the fire in my eyes

(Lightnin')

Put the fire every time

(Lightnin')

Put the fire in my heart

(Lightnin')

Well come on lazy lightnin'

Just a loop of lazy lightnin'



Misty lightning, well you always electrify me

Someday I know you'll satisfy me

And all that lightnin' will be my lightnin' too



My lightnin' too

(My lightnin' too)

Just a loop of lazy lightnin'

(My lightnin' too)

My lightnin' too

(My lightnin' too)



Just a loop of lazy lightnin'

(My lightnin' too)

My lightnin' too

(My lightnin' too)

Oh come on lazy lightnin'

(My lightnin' too)
