POLICE - Synchronicity Ii lyrics
rate meAnother suburban family morning<br>Grandmother screaming at the wall<br><br>We have to shout above the din of our rice crispies<br>We can't hear anything at all<br>Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration<br>But we all know her suicides are fake<br>Daddy only stares into the distance<br>There's only so much more that he can take<br>Many miles away<br>Something crawls from the slime<br>At the bottom of a dark<br>Scottish lake<br><br>Another industrial ugly morning<br>Tha factory belches filth into the sky<br>He walks unhindered through the picket lines today<br>He doesn't think to wonder why<br>The secretaries pout and preen like cheap tarts in a red light street<br>But all he ever thinks to do is watch<br>And every so called meeting with his so called superior<br>Is a humiliating kick in the crotch<br>Many miles away<br>Something crawls to the surface<br>Of a dark scottish loch<br><br>Another working day has ended<br>Only the rush hour hell to face<br>Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes<br>Contestants in a suicidal race<br>Daddy crips the wheel and stares alone into the distance<br>He knows that something somewhere has to break<br>He sees the family home now looming in his headlights<br>The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache<br>Many miles away<br>There's a shadow on the door<br>Of a cottage on the shore<br>Of a dark scottish lake<br><br>Many miles away<br>Many miles away<br>Many miles away<br>Many miles away<br>Many miles away...
