Can you feel it in the airwaves
Rolling down the lane
Blackout in the background
Standing in your veins
Nothing that I wouldn't say to you
Can you teach it to the prisoners
Can you throw it at the wall
You leap into the altitudes
See just where you fall
Nothing that I wouldn't take from you
Can you fit it in a system
Can you put it in a word
Static and distortion is all you ever heard
Nothing that I wouldn't say to you

NOTES:
The beautiful original "Static", which Beck played semi-frequently before unfortunately discarding it and using the title for the "Mutations" version.
In 1995, before "Odelay" came out, there were tentative plans to put out a stand-alone "Static" EP, but that obviously never came to fruition. A shame, really.
Bootleggers ominously named this song "Baby", which is incorrect.
