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 I 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 You never were so sure, was the moment

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 pain they 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 40 years As we hide what we don't want to hear As we hide our dream, near here (?)

He is coming from a part of hell Where (?)-blue eyes don't go down well He can tell that we're oblivious It's a diction and routine as well

Making fools out of the best of us Making robots of the rest of us In that sense, I tell, in America today There's a crime, just like going (?)

Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop me Get out of the way
