LEO WOKE UP IN HIS BED AGAIN
STARTLED BY ALL HIS FAMILIAR FRIENDS
BURNT OUT STUBS CONFECTIONARY WRAPPERS BOTTLES SPENT AND EMPTY
LEO FELT A TERROR IN THE WORLD
HE SIGHS IT'S NOT SO BAD
AND GOES ABOUT HIS DAY AS IF NOTHINGS CHANGED
HE FINDS IT SO HARD TO EXPLAIN THE WAY HE CAN'T COMMUNICATE
THE FEELING'S THERE BUT HE CAN'T SAY WHY IT'S SO HARD TO RELATE TO YOU OR ANYONE
LEO QUICKENED HIS STEP TOWARD HIS CAR
HE BROKE INTO A SPRINT AT TWENTY YARDS
AS HE GUESSED THE DOGS HAD COME RIPPING INTO HIS ARM FOR FUN
LEO GOT AWAY IN HIS BLUE CAR
STARTLED BY ALL HIS FAMILIAR FRIENDS
BURNT OUT STUBS CONFECTIONARY WRAPPERS BOTTLES SPENT AND EMPTY
LEO FELT A TERROR IN THE WORLD
AND GOES ABOUT HIS DAY AS IF NOTHINGS CHANGED
THE FEELING'S THERE BUT HE CAN'T SAY WHY IT'S SO HARD TO RELATE TO YOU OR ANYONE
HE BROKE INTO A SPRINT AT TWENTY YARDS
AS HE GUESSED THE DOGS HAD COME RIPPING INTO HIS ARM FOR FUN
LEO GOT AWAY IN HIS BLUE CAR

this song seems like it's about someone very misunderstood who cant comunicate to people because he doesnt feel confident of his own thoughts. he goes on through days not really living though, he denys what it is to be himself and to be human.
This certainly is about being an addict.
Leo's got himself hooked (his room has become a litter filled smack den), doesn't want to admit it to himself and finds himself alienating himself from all around him. His paranoia gets the better of him at the end.
this song is about leo, who can't talk because he is a mute maybe
I know this isn't what it's about, but this song always reminds me of the story of Leo Beuerman. (Google him.)
Also, this may be the song on Fantastic Planet that's least likely to be about drugs.
You kidding me? first thing I got from this song is:

Leo's addicted to drugs and doesn't take care of himself Friends stage an intervention. He decides its not so bad Cops chase him, send their dogs Leo gets away in his blue car

its an awsum song
Sounds like Leo did something that he can't tell people? Also maybe the cops where looking for him, could be why he took off running with dogs chasing and biting him??? Just my guess.
