lyrics

Does anyone in here get hit
with inside fever?
So bad sometimes it's hard
to move around.
They'll show you all the things
you are not doing.
Instead of helping you they'll
lock you out.
And you're whining you shouldn't waste your money,
but the couch fibers keep you inside.
So i'm so sorry I came in
late this evening.
But all the clocks around
the town had died.
And all the fruit store's colors
were so bright.
With couples smiling
cooking things tonight.
And what were all those
troubles on my mind?
Oh, I took a walk.

The room is filled with men and coke
And I don't break 'til midnight shock
Are you feeling warm tonight?
Turn it down? Well, I just might
The room is filled with ancient apes
Where I've been and what I ate
What I asked you drill them out
And...every...little doubt
The room is filled with gummy bears
Electric shavers, ingrown hairs
I keep the curtains tied in knots
You sleep on cotton, rest in fluff
The room is filled with catalogues
Encyclopaedias, books enough
To keep me busy in the morning
Sun sets fast without warning
The room is filled with cords and plugs
Electronic translucent bugs
And what's that crawling all around?
What's that twitching, is it still alive!?
Is it still alive!?
Is it still alive!?

Does anyone in here get hit
with inside fever?
So bad sometimes it's hard
to move around.
They'll show you all the things
you are not doing.
Instead of helping you they'll
lock you out.
And you're whining you shouldn't waste your money,
but the couch fibers keep you inside.
So i'm so sorry I came in
late this evening.
But all the clocks around
the town had died.
And all the fruit store's colors
were so bright.
With couples smiling
cooking things tonight.
And what were all those
troubles on my mind?
Yes, I took a walk.

Oh, I like a walk.
