background
A lyric from Glory by Television, "When I see the glory, I ain't gotta worry" first appeared in live versions of Love Song. The same lyric also was sometimes used during the climax of New Gold Dream (81,82,83,84) as a substitute for Take Me To The River.




lyrics
I was out stumbling in the rain staring at your lips so red,
You said, "'Blah, blah, blah" you got a pillow stuck in my head."
How could I argue with a mirror?
She looked at me. Yes, I hear her.

When I see the glory,
I ain't gotta worry.
When I see the glory,
I ain't gotta worry.

She said, "There's a halo on that truck, won't you please get it for me?"
I said, "Of course my little swan, if ever and ever you adore me."
She got mad. She said, "You're too steep," She put on her boxing gloves and went to sleep.

When I see the glory,
I ain't gotta worry.
When I see the glory,
I ain't gotta worry.
