I'll be you, you'll be talkin' to a flowerpot
 That's hardly worth a thought or a plague of frogs
 And we will vomit up our Chicago luck and we will dance
 On broken sheets of glass to make our point
 
 And if this town seems too big
 If the traffic freaks you out
 I will be your lightning rod
 Delivering sound to you
 
 He's a charming wreck and he's a handsome wreck
 The kind of rat that took my woman back to his pad
 And I'm not travelin' and I'm not sleepin'
 In the clothes I wore a hundred times or more
 
 And if this town seems too big
 If the traffic freaks you out
 I will be your lightning rod
 Delivering sound
 
 And what will I do?
 What will I do
 When my nerves get topsy turvy?
 
 I'll be you if you want me to
 I'll clean your clock
 
 And if this town seems too big
 If the traffic freaks you out
 I will be your lightning rod
 Delivering sound
 
 I can see beneath your skin
 It really freaks me out
 I will be your camera's flash
 Delivering sunbeams
