  • You're everywhere and nowhere baby
    That's where you're at
    Going down a bumpy hillside
    In your hippy hat
    Flying across the country
    And getting fat
    Saying everything is groovy
    When your tires are flat

    And it's high ho silver lining
    Anywhere you go, now baby
    I see your sun is shining
    But I won't make a fuss
    Though it's obvious

    Flies are in your pea soup baby
    They're waving at me
    Anything you want is yours now
    Only nothing's for free
    Lies are gonna get you someday
    Just wait and see
    So open up your beach umbrella
    While you're watching TV

    And it's high ho silver lining
    Anywhere you go, well baby
    I see your sun is shining
    But I won't make a fuss
    Though it's obvious

    And it's high ho silver lining
    Anywhere you go, well baby
    I see your sun is shining
    But I won't make a fuss
    Though it's obvious
    And it's high ho silver lining
    Anywhere you go, well baby
    I see your sun is shining
    But I won't make a fuss Writer/s: Laurence Weiss, Scott David English

  • Paul from LondonOne commenter says that the British weren't aware of the Lone Ranger. That is completely wrong; the Lone Ranger was a hugely popular TV show in the UK in the 50s.
  • A _real_ Music Fan from MarsI'd never read the lyrics until just now. What unutterable DRECK! No wonder Beck has likened it to a pink toilet seat hung around his neck for the rest of his whole f*****ug career!
  • AnonymousWhat benighted, ignorant cretin rated Beck 14th?!?

    I can't think of four, much less 14, guitarists who are even compartble -- and most of his peers agree, John McLaughin, both of the other Yardbirds guitarists, and just about every other world-class rock, jazz, & blues guitarist included,
  • Anonymous from MaltaI was under the impression that this song charted again in Britain in 1972. Maybe I was wrong.
