lyrics

i was painted in the corner of my smashed up telephone
i was doing all I could to be a stranger
i was looking very carefully for your deadly motivation
i was regressing back in time to the first day of the creation

someone stole the gravity
and looks like i have lost my sanity
i really don’t want to deal with your hypocrisy
somewhere out there there’s intelligent life
but it’s not here

i was giving all my words away to phoney tv reporters
i was talking very seriously
about all the ghosts inside my house
i was being so evasive that someone said i was obnoxious
i applauded their perception but my god what a buffoon

i was gift wrapped like the devil
i was drunk like richard nixon
i was changing faster than the naked eye could see
somewhere out there there’s intelligent life

i applaud your perception but my god what a buffoon
