The radio's on, the song they play
Can't make no sense of what they say
I couldn't tell you if I knew
Don't understand most things I see
In the moonlight of the TV
I couldn't tell you what to do
Rita it all just seems too much
And sometimes maybe not enough
My head is so, so filled up
And Rita, I guess I think too much
Or maybe sometimes not enough
My head is always so filled up
I hold the phone close to my ear
Can't recognize the voice I hear
Couldn't remember what they said
The newspaper stands upon the stair
I can't believe how long I slept
Now why should I get out of bed
Rita it all just seems too much
And sometimes maybe not enough
My head is so, so filled up
And Rita I guess I think too much
Or maybe sometimes not enough
My head is always so filled up
There was a thing floating way up there
Was it a wish or another prayer?
It was stuck, stuck up in the air
Can't make no sense of what they say
I couldn't tell you if I knew
In the moonlight of the TV
I couldn't tell you what to do
And sometimes maybe not enough
My head is so, so filled up
Or maybe sometimes not enough
My head is always so filled up
Can't recognize the voice I hear
Couldn't remember what they said
I can't believe how long I slept
Now why should I get out of bed
And sometimes maybe not enough
My head is so, so filled up
Or maybe sometimes not enough
My head is always so filled up
Was it a wish or another prayer?
It was stuck, stuck up in the air

Hildago & Perez manags to capture the absolute essence of depression in this song. They\'ve put a pedal steel in back of it that just reinforces the hopelessness of it all... stuck, stuck up in the air.
