"My Compensation" lyrics - LAURIE ANDERSON

My eyes snap open and I get up I say
This must be my lucky day

Jump up - get out - get on my way

Every slobbery frog and every mangy dog
That crosses my path reminds me

You're my precious jewel and you're my precious one
My compensation.

I used to live in a big house
All I ever thought about was getting out
When I met you there was something about you

Every slobbery frog and every mangy dog
That crosses my path reminds me
I love your brain. I love your brain.
I love your brain.
