Yeah yeah yeah
Oh, oh, oh, (oh)
I had a wet dream in the desert
And then everyone got thirsty
And they didn't know why
It seems they've been lacking
Something in their lives
Waiting for rain
To come down from the sky
So little Neh Neh's got a problem
Mr. uncle likes to touch her
But she better not tell
Ah come on now work it on out,
For yourself
When no solution's come,
You can't ask for help
And I'd like to get into
Something you might understand
An Ocean in teacups
A great big world with little hands
A tv show comes on tonight
But no one gets the station
Of my quiet desperation...
(Quiet)
Desperation...
Yeah-yeah-yeah
And if the next plane leaves for Dover
Tell them don't paint serenity on my face
I want everybody to know
What went on here
I don't want no fairytales
About this place
And I'd like to get into
Something you might understand
An Ocean in teacups
A great big world with little hands
A tv show comes on tonight
But no one gets the station
Of my quiet desperation...
(Quiet)
Desperation yeah-oh
(Quiet)
Desperation
(Quiet)
Desperation
(Quiet)
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Get it right
I, I, I,
And if the next plane leaves for Dover, yeah
Tell them don't paint serenity on my face
I want everybody, everybody, everybody to know
I don't want no fairytales (yeah) about this place
I had a wet dream in the desert
I saw no one got thirsty
I think I know why
They've been lacking
Something in their lives
Waiting for rain
To come down from the sky
And oh I'd like to get into
Something you might understand
An Ocean in teacups
A great big world with little hands
A tv show comes on tonight
But no one gets the station
Of my quiet...
