Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
Left a note, he's still yawning
Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
Left a note, she couldn't make it
How did she ever take a lesson outside his head?

Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
He couldn't understand, he was a busy man
Tried to reach him again, plead with him
Please come please come please come
Please come please come please come

See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high

Hovering and hovering and hovering on
Hovering and hovering and hovering on
I'm a hovering and hovering and hovering on
Hovering and hovering and hovering on

Dr. Baker phoned me again later that day
Said he cried and he really sounded out of it
His wife was dead and his dog was dead
And misery planned inside his head
I tried to reason with him, tried singing
He said 'no boy you'll never listen'
Try it again
Try it again
Try it again (gain gain gain gain)

See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high

Hovering and hovering and hovering on
I'm a hovering and hovering and hovering on
I'm a hovering and hovering and hovering on
I'm a hovering and hovering and hovering on
I'm a hovering and hovering and hovering on
I'm a hovering on
I'm a hovering on

Wow, doc! On my way to give this song low #'s I thought I'd see if you'd raised your hand on this one and surprised to find you like it..... Blech!

I love the Beta Band. Their self titled album is for those that like the weird syncopation stuff, but Hot Shots II is much more accessible, while keeping the mellow/weird esthetic of this song and much of their stuff.

I'm extremely happy to be shown interesting different stuff like this. I like the Beta Band, and I had no idea this was them. Reminds me a bit of the odd experimental styles of XTC. I couldn't give it a high rating cause it doesn't knock my socks off, but I'm still glad to hear it now and again. Makes me want to go get a Beta Band CD.

I'm all for syncopation and filddling with measure boundaries, but it's gotta work. This one only partially works. No one said it was easy.

The Moody Blues on Crack, maybe?

This is a seriously weird band, but I have to admit, some of their stuff is pretty cool.
