1,000,000 (Live at the Olympia / 2007) lyrics
by R.E.M.
[Michael Stipe:]
"This is another Chronic Town tip. Here we go."
"Lots of death in this one, too. I don't know where I was in the early '80s, but... Here we go."
[Verse 1]
Secluded in a marker stone
Not only deadlier - smarter, too
Smarter, too
All along the ruins
The secret in the ruin
Secluded in a marker stone
Not only deadlier - smarter, too
Smarter, too
[Chorus]
I could live a million
I could live a million
I could live a million
I could live a million years
[Verse 1]
Secluded in a marker stone
Not only deadlier - smarter, too
Smarter, too
All along the ruins
The secret in the ruin
Secluded in a marker stone
Not only deadlier - smarter, too
Smarter, too
[Chorus]
I could live a million
I could live a million
I could live a million
I could live a million years
[Verse 2]
All along, all along, all along the moor
The secret in, a secret in, the secret in the ruin
Secluded in a marker stone
Not only deadlier - smarter, too
Smarter, too
[Chorus]
I could live a million
I could live a million
I could live a million
I could live a million years
[Michael Stipe:]
"Third verse, same as the first!"
