Beck Song Information - Bottle of Blues (extended intro)

Lyrics:

Fucking freeze with the pumpkin pie!

Roll the tape

Da da da...

I just found me a bottle of blues
Some strange comfort for a soul to soothe
Ain't it hard, ain't it hard to want somebody
Who doesn't want you?

And I've been waiting for a year or a day
Some strange weather must be blowing my way
'Cause I got no mind to go or to stay
Or be left behind

Holding hands with an impotent dream
In a brothel of fake energy
Put a nickel in a graveyard machine
I get higher and lower
I get higher and lower
Like a tired soldier with nothing to shoot
And nowhere to lose this bottle of blues

Eagles drone and pose alone
Like black balloons all banged and blown
On a backwoods river
The infidels shiver in the stench of belief

And tell my mama I'm a hundred years late
I'm over the rails and out of the race
And the crippled psalms of an age that won't thaw
Are ringing in my ears

Holding hands with an impotent dream
In a brothel of fake energy
Put a nickel in a graveyard machine
I get higher and lower
I get higher and lower
Like a tired soldier with nothing to shoot
And nowhere to lose this bottle of blues

There's nothing that I won't play
Uh huh yea, what?

I just found me a bottle of blues
Some strange comfort for a soul to soothe
Ain't it hard, ain't it hard to want somebody
Who doesn't want you?

Holding hands with an impotent dream
In a brothel of fake energy
Put a nickel in a graveyard machine
I get higher and lower
I get higher and lower
Like a tired soldier with nothing to shoot
And nowhere to lose this bottle of blues
Bottle of blues

And all my folks in the back row

The Song:

This isn't really an alternate version of "Bottle Of Blues," but it does have the full tape on at the beginning. It can be found on an early test pressing of Mutations. A voice can be heard in the beginning saying, "Fucking freeze with the pumpkin pie!" over some funky bass (unclear if that's Beck or who). Beck then goes "Roll the tape!" as the song as we usually know it begins. Best I can tell there is nothing else different with the song and how you normally hear it on Mutations, just those voices before the music starts.
