My Thoughts Are A Gas

Taken from "Demons and Painkillers" 2003

"Of lights who've faded out before here comes the same
When I'm coded from to much of what I can't describe
Kepat at bay in some regard despite what she wrote
I've been frozen in a site display where nothing amounts
To anything

Took a journey back to sometime just to find out
If I could locate another improbable passage way
Penetrate ? rock and the rock echos back
My thoughts are a gas
I'm not going to crash
Into anyone

And often asked
What do you know
Just what was handed down to me
Slip graciously in to the happy homes
Groping ? frequently opposed
???
Built this champion
Out of their own wasted flesh
Is this supposed to do that
Through it all I'll pass
Cause my thoughts are a gas
My thoughts are a gas
My thoughts are a gas"

A shiny and almost Goth like twinkle pervades the early part of this song. I could almost imagine Sister of Mercy droning over the track. This is a classic Guided By Voices tune but only exists on rarity and collected albums. A very catchy hook and a good drive to the song and another song to feature "Gas" in the title. Can you remember the others?
