Graham Parker - Stupefaction lyrics
rate meThe sun is burning it never changes
The people look up with nothing in their eyeballs
They stare at billboards as if for guidance
Theres something wrong here I cant but my finger on
Same thing same way everyday stupefaction oh yeah
Drive out on sunset but nothings moving
The lights are green or is that my imagination
The people sit there cameras without action
I cant see the point but I see the attraction
Same thing same way everyday stupefaction oh yeah
Were going to get clear outa this some day
Because the comforts so appealing the bodies so revealing
Just get to feeling like a wheel without traction
Stupefaction oh yeah
I ask the landlord how much you making
Dont you get tired of just taking and taking
I ask the neighbour why are you so stupid?
Giving us those dirty looks and tryin to murder cupid
Same thing same way everyday stupefaction ah yeah
Were going to get clear outa this some day
Because the comforts so appealing the bodies so revealing
Just get to feeling like a wheel without traction
Stupefaction oh yeah
Turn up the tv tun up the radio
Turn up the volume nothing seems to matter
Lay back and slumber bring out the number
Ask the operator what spell we are under its the
Same thing same way everyday stupefaction ah yeah
Stupid stupid stupid hey hey hey (6 times)
Same thing same way everyday stupefaction ah yeah
Stupid stupid stupid hey hey hey (repeat and fade)
