It's funny how I watch the day go by
I'm sitting watching TV, talk shows high
There's banging on the walls, my head aches
I'm drinking out the world that I hate
I had a big car, new clothes, everything
I've had a watch engraved in Switzerland
Today I saw her buying a magazine
It's time to get myself some therapy
[Prehorus:]
How can I stop this, how can I stop this
How can I stop this disease?
[Chorus:]
She's got a new dress on (I'm in cement)
Sit's by her radio (I'm in cement)
She's got those X-ray eyes (I'm in cement)
Don't know which way to go (I'm in cement)
It's funny but I dream for yesterday
I'm blistered by the burns that life has made
I'm staring out behind the window shade
I see her face across the street again
I'm in quicksand, sinking in again
I've got concrete shoes and I can't swim
[Prechorus:]
How can I stop this, how can I stop this
How can I stop this disease?
[Chorus]
She's got a new dress on (I'm in cement)
She's got a new dress on (I'm in cement)
[Bridge:]
I don't know what to do, but I know that I must pull through
I can't keep watching you
[Prechorus]
[Chorus]
She's got a new dress on (3x)
She's got a new dress on... yeah!
I'm sitting watching TV, talk shows high
There's banging on the walls, my head aches
I'm drinking out the world that I hate
I had a big car, new clothes, everything
I've had a watch engraved in Switzerland
Today I saw her buying a magazine
It's time to get myself some therapy
How can I stop this, how can I stop this
How can I stop this disease?
She's got a new dress on (I'm in cement)
Sit's by her radio (I'm in cement)
She's got those X-ray eyes (I'm in cement)
Don't know which way to go (I'm in cement)
I'm blistered by the burns that life has made
I'm staring out behind the window shade
I see her face across the street again
I've got concrete shoes and I can't swim
How can I stop this, how can I stop this
How can I stop this disease?
She's got a new dress on (I'm in cement)
I don't know what to do, but I know that I must pull through
I can't keep watching you
She's got a new dress on... yeah!

One of the strongest feeder song. It has soo much character. He has everything (watch, new clothes, big car), but he turns into 'cement' when he sees this woman.
