So you want to run and play
Don’t you know there’s bills to pay?
Agoraphobic when you’re at home
Don’t tell anyone on the phone
the spooks want you in jail
clean your cache and power off
Hand to mouth and pedals pushed
your brain turns into mush
more work and more to wash
this treadmill never stops
grab hold of those rails
let in what cures the ails
One day you’ll find
It’s in your mind
You’re paranoid
How can’t you see
through all the things
you don’t enjoy?
Rise and shine it’s a brand new day
think in a positive way
No one likes those negative thoughts
Put on pants a leg at a time
Run through routine and toe the line
make sure everyone’s on time
Gimme coffee an endless cup
Power on and caffeine up
Shaking now all the power flows
Through the fingers and the toes
Getting on another train
to eat my day and rot my brain
One day you’ll find
It’s in your mind
You’re paranoid
How can’t you see
through all the things
you don’t enjoy?
So you want to run and play
Don’t you know there’s bills to pay?
Agoraphobic when you’re at home
Don’t tell anyone on the phone
