The Grateful Dead — Picasso Moon Live at the Meadowlands October 16 1989

[Verse 1] South of Market in the land of ruin You get all manner of action Tinsel tigers in The Metal Room Stalking satisfaction They got them packaged up for love and money Tattooed tots and chrome spike bunnies Check my conscience at the DMZ And roll on in, going to roll in it, honey But I get a feeling like when big things collide Like the crack before the thunder, like I really ought to hide Here comes Metal Angel, she looks ready to ride What's that she’s trying to show me? What's that she's trying to show me? [Chorus] Picasso Moon, shattered light Diamond bullets ripping up the night Picasso Moon, liberate me, yeah Ah, life’s infinite diversity, oh yeah Great, amazing, majesty, oh yeah And it's bigger than a drive-in movie, ooh-wee Bigger than a drive-in movie, ooh-wee [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Hanging ten out on space and time Redefining distance The next skull on your necklace is mine Cheap for such assistance I had a job trading bits for pieces We'd make wrinkles, advertise them as creases Please, find my resignation enclosed Roll with it, roll with it, we going to roll in it Dark Angel, What's bothering you? So strange, you'll do me all that you do Dark Angel, you're making me blue I guess it doesn't matter I guess it doesn't matter, hey [Chorus] Picasso Moon, blinding ball I feel the quickening, I hear the call Picasso moon, fill the sky, yeah Amaze and blaze and mystify, yeah With the lunar wind, I want to fly, oh yeah And it’s bigger than a drive-in movie, oh my Bigger than a drive-in movie, oh my [Verse 3] Strikes morning; the atomic dawn Scramble back to cover Quick, pop your mirrored sunglasses on My little leather-winged lover I see your face printed on my money Your sultry ways really move me, honey Heart of darkness, Yea-e-yea-e-e-hoo Why’m I laughing? This sure ain't funny Dark Angel, now just don’t start You'll break my spirit, you'll wreck my heart You must have a license for practicing that art I don't presume to imagine No, I, I don’t presume to imagine [Chorus] Picasso Moon, fractal flame Blazing lace filling every frame Picasso Moon, wheels within wheels, yeah The bells are ringing, it's way unreal, oh yeah Trying to tell y'all about just how it feels, oh yeah And it's bigger than a drive-in movie, for real Bigger than a drive-in movie, for real Picasso Moon, shattered light Diamond bullets tearing up the night Picasso Moon, fill the sky, yeah Picasso Moon, blinding ball I feel the quickening, I hear the call Picasso moon, fill the sky, yeah Picasso Moon, fractal flame Blazing lace filling every frame Picasso Moon, liberate me, yeah, yeah, yeah [Instrumental]
