You got your electricity

The heat is on high

You can't keep your eyes away

From the TV

You walk outside

With your face on the ground

Too tired to hear the sound

Of a child on the rooftops

And he was

Kicking off slate

Do you remember when

You were a boy

And you were void of hate

Because I know a place

Where the smiles last for days

And the people celebrate

At the drop of rain

They go outside

(They last for days)

On the barefooted ground

(They last for days)

They can hear the sound

They can hear the sound

But switch back to the first world

A smiling face on a TV

Man walks out of a square house

Into a square car

And he wonders, "What happened to me?"

And don't ask him where he's going

'Cause he doesn't know

When he'll be back

He sits there in his car

With the keys in his lap

Well have you figured it out, out

(Have you figured it out?)

Well have you figured it out, out

(Have you figured it out?)

Well have you figured it out, out

(Have you figured it out?)

'Cause I haven't got a clue

I was crossing the tracks

I saw a big yellow light

Coming for me

What happened to the blinking red lights?

They must have run out of batteries

And I should stand up for my friends

Because I believe in them

And if someone puts them down

Why am I silent

'Til the end?

And you better smile when I say hi

'Cause I'm smiling whenever you're nearby

Well I guess you don't make a big deal

Out of anything

Anymore

And ya pass a car turned over on the side of the road

You contemplate a reversal of the roles

But you don't pull over to help

You'll forget about it

Three seconds down the road

Well have you figured it out, out

(Have you figured it out?)

Well have you figured it out, out

(Have you figured it out?)

Well have you figured it out, out

(Have you figured it out?)

'Cause I haven't got a clue

And I hold everything against you

Because you see

You never held anything at all

Against me

You'd better smile when I say hi

'Cause I'm smiling whenever you're nearby

Well I guess you don't make a big deal

Out of anything

Anymore

And I was crossing the tracks

I saw a big yellow light

Coming for me

What happened to the blinking red lights?

They must have run out of batteries

Now you'll

Just forget about it all

'Cause all your things are

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone
