Here Come the Warm Jets Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Further we make claims on our teas
Dawn inner here for we've nowhere to be
Nowhere to be
Nowhere to be
[Verse 2]
Father stains, we're all on our knees
Down on our words and we've nothing to be
Nothing to be
Nothing to be
[Verse 3]
Further down we're all on our sails
Paid to appease though we've nothing these days
Nothing these days
Nothing these days
[Verse 4]
Further still, their stall in a daze
We're down on our knees and we've nothing to say
Nothing to say
Nothing to say
Further we make claims on our teas
Dawn inner here for we've nowhere to be
Nowhere to be
Nowhere to be
[Verse 2]
Father stains, we're all on our knees
Down on our words and we've nothing to be
Nothing to be
Nothing to be
[Verse 3]
Further down we're all on our sails
Paid to appease though we've nothing these days
Nothing these days
Nothing these days
[Verse 4]
Further still, their stall in a daze
We're down on our knees and we've nothing to say
Nothing to say
Nothing to say
About
Genius Annotation
The meaning of the term “warm jets” in the title of this song has been quite a source of speculation since its release. Eno has stated that the term refers to the guitars: “The title Warm Jets came from the guitar sound on the track of that name, which I described on the track sheet as ‘warm jet guitar’, because it sounded like a tuned jet.” However, there are rumors that it has a more sexual meaning – that is, that it refers to a “golden shower”, especially since the cover art includes a playing card with a picture of a woman urinating on it.
