Dimmer Switch

by Dream of a Man in a Top Hat

/

lyrics

Your iris opens wider
When you use
the dimmer switch

But why would that
make it any simpler
to know which is which

(Your eye sees
The middle of
Off and on)

What you perceive
when the lights are low
in the realm of the dimmer switch
Can be mistaken for the way it is
in the realm of the dimmer switch

Only see
What your mind wants you to see
Cause that’s all you have

You gotta be able to see
Where you dropped a stitch
It’s blinking real fast
It’s a son of a bitch

And so just about
A half of that image is made up
In your cranium

What you perceive
when the lights are low
in the realm of the dimmer switch
Can be mistaken for the way it is
in the realm of the dimmer switch
