Animals on TV singing about some pain that they once felt
|
There¡¯s no one I disapprove of or root more for than myself
|
I wanted to pretend that it was better, better, better on the phone
|
Didn¡¯t want to tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous and alone
|
|
So we talk about ourselves in hell
|
To forget the love we never felt
|
All the old jokes that work so well
|
Universal truth was a moment¡¯s lie
|
|
Don¡¯t try to stop us
|
Don¡¯t try to stop us
|
Don¡¯t try to stop us
|
Get out of the way
|
|
Got to get to climb your tree in the light of the living ghost I see
|
She sees her father in that old man¡¯s eyes while secretly he stares at her thighs
|
Animals on TV singing about some pain that they felt at some point
|
I didn¡¯t want to tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous
|
What¡¯s the point?
|
|
As I watch the velvet drapes appear
|
And the door was closed for 40 years
|
As we hide what we don¡¯t want to hear
|
As we hide what¡¯s really in our ears
|
|
He is coming from a part of hell
|
Where lightning blue eyes don¡¯t go down well
|
He can tell that we¡¯re oblivious
|
It¡¯s addiction of routine as well
|
|
Making fools out of the best of us
|
Making robots of the rest of us
|
Innocence itself in America today
|
Is a crime just like Cornel West might say
|
|
Don¡¯t try to stop us
|
Don¡¯t try to stop us
|
Don¡¯t try to stop us
|
Get out of the way
|
