Blips Drips & Strips Lyrics - Stereolab

I pick up by the handful 

The somber heap at my feet 

Eyes closed to see the hopeful 

Trusting my deepest instinct 

I pick up by the handful 

The somber heap at my feet 

Eyes closed to see the hopeful 

Trusting my deepest instinct 

But I go on 

Dawning light 

Task of hope 

In a dawn light 

Task of hope 

These are stars 

At last dare to raise my eyes 

I saw the ship in the stars 

Strong of a glittering fleet 

Bringing light to the new born 

I pick up by the handful 

The somber heap at my feet 

Eyes closed to see the hopeful 

Trusting my deepest instinct 

At last dare to raise my eyes 

(But I go on) 

I saw the ship in the stars 

(Task of hope) 

Strong of a glittering fleet 

(Dawning light) 

Bringing light to the new born
