Laurie Anderson - Frames For The Pictures Lyrics




I had this dream ... and in it my mother was sitting there cutting out pictures of hamsters from magazines. In some of the pictures, the hamsters are pets, and in some of them, hamsters are just somewhere in the background.

She glues them together, and frames the pictures, and hangs them up over the fireplace--that’s more or less her method. And suddenly I realize that this is just her way of telling me that I should become a structuralist filmmaker--which I had, you know, planned to do anyway ...
