Stupefaction - Graham Parker
The sun is burning it never changes
The people look up with nothing in their eyeballs
They stare at billboards as if for guidance
There's something wrong here I can't but my finger on
Same thing same way everyday stupefaction oh yeah
Drive out on sunset but nothing's moving
The lights are green or is that my imagination
The people sit there cameras without action
I can't see the point but I see the attraction
Same thing same way everyday stupefaction oh yeah
We're going to get clear outa this some day
Because the comfort's so appealing the bodies so revealing
Just get to feeling like a wheel without traction
Stupefaction
I ask the landlord how much you making
Don't 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
We're going to get clear outa this some day
Because the comfort's so appealing the bodies so revealing
Just get to feeling like a wheel without traction
Stupefaction
Turn up the TV turn 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
