I was braindead, locked out,

numb, not up to speed

Is your Benzedrine...

Oh ho
I was braindead, locked out,
numb, not up to speed
I thought I'd pegged you,

an idiot's dream
I thought I'd pegged you,

an idiot's dream
Tunnel vision
from the outsider's screen

I never understood

the frequency... Oh ho
I never understood

the frequency... Oh ho
You wore our expectations

like an armored suit...

Oh ho
I'd studied your cartoons,

radio, music, TV,

movies, magazines
Richard said, 'Withdrawal

in disgust is not

the same as apathy'
A smile like the cartoon,

tooth for a tooth

You said that irony was the

shackles of youth
You wore a shirt

of violent green... Oh ho

You said that irony was the

shackles of youth
You wore a shirt
of violent green... Oh ho

I never understood

the frequency... Oh ho
I never understood

the frequency... Oh ho
Butterny decal,

rearview mirror,

dogging the scene
You smile like the cartoon,

tooth for a tooth

You said that irony was the

shackles of youth
You wore a shirt

of violent green... Oh ho

You said that irony was the

shackles of youth
You wore a shirt
of violent green... Oh ho

I never understood

the frequency... Oh ho
I never understood

the frequency... Oh ho
You wore our expectations

like an armored suit...

Oh ho
I couldn't understand

You said that irony was the
shackles of youth... Oh ho

I couldn't understand
You wore a shirt

of violent green... Oh ho

shackles of youth... Oh ho

I couldn't understand
You wore a shirt

of violent green... Oh ho

I couldn't understand

I never understood
the frequency... Oh ho

I couldn't understand

I never understood
the frequency... Oh ho
