Dumb and numb, from young and wired All I do is wait Pushy and hungry for more Curtis, do you know what our lives are for now? That it's been 3 weeks and no one talks about you anymore? All I do is wait We are a sea of fragility And so ready to surf the sink 'Til the sponges are flooded and we're all forced underneath All I do is wait I'm so good at condescending It's so good for my weak ego Can't get past what comes naturally to me It comes natural to use There's a fairness in the city There's a new smell in the air Satisfaction promised But the sentiment ends there All the Capricorn reactions In the river up to my knees A hundred little baby fishes With baby bottle mouths to feed Crooners crawl themselves like whores Across the barroom floor My mother used to hold me, I hold her now that she's old After all it's just a notion Nothing really in the end 'Til a good one leaves the continent You just can't write words to send I guess everything's just perfect It's all true, what you've been told Run and tell your good friends that you just got sold
