Pixies - Palace Of The Brine Lyrics






In a place they say is dead
in the lake that's like an ocean
i count about a billion head
all the time
there's a motion
palace of the brine
i saw the cloning
of the famous family
i heard the droning
in the shrine
of the sea-monkey
palace of the brine
beneath reflections in the fountain
the starry sky and utah mountains
they are swimming happily
can't you see
a life that's so sublime
palace of the brine.

    They are playing Saltair here next week. I always thought they were referring to the Salt Palace, an old concert/sports arena in SLC. They aren't clear so I guess it could be either.

    "OUR LIVES ARE SOOOOOOO SUBLIME!" This is the song that started me being a fan of the Pixies. It's harsh and sweet! THEY ARE SOOOO CRYPTIC.

  15. R.... ....

    Makes you wondering what they were on when they decided to write a song about the Brine Shrimp in the Great Salt Lake? I know Black, Kim and Joey loved to ski Utah but, really? Brine Shrimp... LOL.. That's awesome! They even refer to the BYU cloning of a sheep back in the early 80's..
