Lyrics

It turns out Transparent Things is not only a story by Nabokov, it is also a song written by Fujiya and Miyagi. I read the Lyrics and was amazed by some more patterns that exist both in the song lyrics and the story. For example: "grains of pear blue boxing." The color blue, which some has found to be a pattern this semester. Also, pear blue boxing? An object with its descriptive color, like in transparent things, Apple-green, cherry-red etc.. I also got into the lyrics "I look through transparent things and I feel okay." If a person can just look through something, and not into it, into its past, they are not getting lost within it, making them think harder than one usually would. (I dont know.. maybe the songwriters arent this deep... maybe they are just referring to the obvious transparent things, such as a window. Or maybe they are deep and are referring to looking through something transparent such as "looking through the veil." If there is a veil, a lot is not seen, making one feel better?)

HERE ARE THE LYRICS:

Litter box, professional non-smokers
pricks and a replica kits of red and black yeah
cyclists should write and designate it
Passing cold zone tonight on the pavement

Two by two European language schools
they got the same college rocks
sex on their backs yeah
Uh oh, I know
they got the same college rocks sex, oh

I look through transparent things and I feel okay [3x]

Gift box, singer songwriters
and symmetrical ticks and grains of pear blue boxes
So so I know

I look through transparent things and I feel okay [3x]

Litter box, professional non-smokers
and symmetrical ticks and grains of pear blue boxing

I look through transparent things and I feel okay [6x]
I look through transparent things, I feel okay
