(from the album How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb)

Vertigo Lyrics

Unos, dos, tres, catorce

Turn it up there, captain



(Rock as hard as you can tonight)



Lights go down, it's dark

The jungle is your head

Can't rule your heart

A feeling so much stron-ger

Than a thought

Your eyes are wide

And though your soul

It can't be bought

Your mind can wander



Hello, hello (¡Hola!)

I'm at a place called Vertigo (¿Dónde está?)

It's everything I wish I didn't know

Except you give me something I can feel, feel



The night is full of holes

As bullets rip the sky

Of ink with gold

They twinkle as the

Boys play rock and roll

They know that they can't dance

At least they know...



I can't stand the beats

I'm asking for the cheque

The girl with crimson nails

Has Jesus around her neck

Swinging to the music

Swinging to the music



Hello, hello (¡Hola!)

I'm at a place called Vertigo (¿Dónde está?)

It's everything I wish I didn't know

But you give me something

I can feel, feel



(Shot dead)

(Sure is a fall)

(Showman in in yeah)



All of this, all of this can be yours

All of this, all of this can be yours

All of this, all of this can be yours

Just give me what I want and no one gets hurt



Hello, hello (¡Hola!)

We're at a place called Vertigo (¿Dónde está?)

Lights go down, and all I know

Is that you give me something

I can feel your love teaching me how

Your love is teaching me how, how to kneel, kneel



Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, (yeah)



Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, (yeah)



[English Translation]



Uno, does, tres, catorce = One, Two, Three, Fourteen

Hola = Hello, or yep.

Dónde está = Where is (that)?
