Hey, run for cover
There's a live one here
Spit and spinning
With a manic energy
Roll out the carpet
This will be our year
We'll march along
With mindlessness in solitude
We've got a lot to lose
Pay attention to the signs around
You've got a lot of nerve
To hear the noise
But miss out on the sound
Feast onto famine
Now the market's bear
The static has at last
Outshined the melody
Oh tranquilizer
This will be our year
You soothe the symptoms
Of this mania
We've got a lot to lose
Pay attention to the signs around
You've got a lot of nerve
To hear the noise
But miss out on the sound
Preaching the chorus to the air
Every sheep would rather be a shepherd
You'd better pull them by the ear
And deaf, defy the drowning of your senses
We've got a lot to lose
Pay attention to the signs around
And if we ever learn
To hear the noise
But listen to the sound
