[00:20.06]It's late at night it's time to tell you my secrets
[00:24.02]My personality's cut up into pieces
[00:28.62]My new society's my one secret weakness
[00:32.87]I'm out of money and I'm out of my mind
[00:37.08]We can't fit in so we just head for the fringes
[00:41.37]Your universe, your blue lipstick, and syringes
[00:45.74]Your bedroom doorway with the bugs in the hinges
[00:50.26]Something's about you that I don't understand
[00:54.17]I, I don't want to be the bad guy
[01:00.59]I want to see myself from the outside
[01:04.98]Can you hear me now, wait, wait can you, wait, wait can you hear me now?
[01:11.45]Cuz I've got a lousy connection
[01:17.50]I promise my undying affection
[01:22.01]Can you hear me now, wait, wait can you, wait, wait can you hear me now?
[01:46.26]So I've been working on this letter to congress
[01:50.11]Regarding some things that I think they should address
[01:54.14]Showed up in court wearing an Indian head-dress
[01:59.01]Somehow I think maybe the message was lost
[02:03.27]It seems the clarity we knew is degraded
[02:07.69]A royal flush but all the faces have faded
[02:12.15]I want the universe, God knows I've been patient
[02:16.25]I hear your voice behind a staticy storm
[02:20.39]The century seems like it's turning out okay
[02:25.01]It's like a game of worldwide karaoke
[02:29.22]And My rich friends and me just sit and blow smoke rings
[02:33.61]There's nothing happening and it's happening too fast
[02:37.84]Try to interpret but the message is scrambled
[02:42.11]The institutions that I lean are crumbled
[02:46.72]I've got the world's ear but I'm all fucking mumbles
[02:50.88]I guess I'm just another link the chain
[02:54.62]I, I don't want to be the bad guy
[03:01.04]I want to see myself from the outside
[03:06.25]Can you hear me now, wait, wait can you hear me now?
[03:12.01]And I've got a lousy connection
[03:18.30]I promise my undying affection
[03:23.05]Can you hear me now, wait, wait can you, wait, just can you hear me now?
