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.
