R.E.M.

R.E.M. was an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills and drummer Bill Berry. One of the first popular alternative rock bands, R.E.M. gained early attention due to Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style and Stipe's unclear vocals. R.E.M. released its first single, "Radio Free Europe", in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone. The single was followed by the Chronic Town EP in 1982, the band's first release on I.R.S. Records.

This name I got we all were green
See could stop stop it will red
We could bind it in the cist
We could gather, throw a fit

Up to par, and Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in
Sit and try for the big key, a waste of time, sitting still

I'm the sun and you can read
I'm the sign and you're not deaf
We could bind it in the scythe
We could gather, throw a fit

Up to par, and Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in
Sit and try for the big key, a waste of time, sitting still
I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you

This name I got we all were green
See could stop stop it will red
We could bind it in the cist
We could gather, throw a fit

Up to par, and Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in
Sit and try for the big key, a waste of time, sitting still
I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you

You can gather when I talk, talk until you're blue
You could get away from me, get away from me

I'm up to par, and Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not me in,
Sit and try for the big key, a waste of time, sitting still
I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you
I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you, I, I, I can hear you
Can you hear me?
