Is your Benzedrine, uh-huh?
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
Tunnel vision from the outsider's screen
Music, TV, movies, magazines
You said that irony was the shackles of youth, uh-huh
Doggin' the scene
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
"Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy"
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
I thought I'd pegged you, an idiot's dream
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
A smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
I couldn't understand
Butterfly decal, rear-view mirror
I couldn't understand
I never understood
You smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
Not up to speed
I couldn't understand
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh
I'd studied your cartoons, radio
I was brain-dead, locked out, numb
Richard said,
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
What's the frequency, Kenneth
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
