Animals on TV singing

about some pain that they once felt

There's no one I disapprove of more, or root for more than myself

I wanted to pretend that it was better, better, better on the phone

I didn't wanna tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous and alone

 So we talk about ourselves in hell

 To forget the love we never felt

 All the old jokes that work so well

 Universal truth was a moment's lie

Don't try to stop us

Don't try to stop us

Don't try to stop us

Get out of the way

Got to get to climb your tree in the light of the living ghost I see

She sees her father in the old man's eyes while secretly he stares at her

thighs

Animals on TV singing about some they may felt at some point

I didn't want to tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous, what's the point?

 As I watched the velvet drapes appear

 And the door was closed for fourty years

 As we hide what we don't wanna hear

 As we hide what's really in our ears

 He is coming from a part of hell

 Where lightning blue eyes don't go down well

 He can't tell that we're oblivious

 It's addiction of routine as well

 Making fools out of the best of us

 Making robots of the rest of us

 Innocence itself in America today

 There's a crime just like Cornel West might say

Don't try to stop us

Don't try to stop us

Don't try to stop me

Get out of the way
