(i Want To Live On An) Abstract Plain Lyrics - Frank Black

I've had it with this town 

I never saw those shifting skies 

I never saw the ground 

Or the sunset rise 

I want to live on an abstract plane 

I'm building a frame 

A place to put my ten-yard stare 

Thinking of that paint 

Painted in plain-air 

I want to live on an abstract plane 

I need a new address 

I want some new terrain 

Is it north or south? 

I want to live on an abstract plain 

I could sit on the roof 

On top of that abstract house 

See my abstract view 

An abstract mouse 

I want to live on an abstract plane
