| I’m a kid in a candy store
|
| I’m a bull in a china shop
|
| I’m a tired old metaphor
|
| For everything you can’t afford
|
| And everything you can’t afford to be
|
| I’m a public embarrassment
|
| I’m a bottle of diet poison
|
| I’m a walking advertisement
|
| For everything I never meant
|
| And everything I never meant to be
|
| I can’t hear a thing
|
| Cause I’ve stopped listening
|
| I’m the reason I don’t go out
|
| I’m afraid I might tell me something
|
| I’m the shadow of every doubt
|
| I’m the product this song’s about
|
| I’m the product this song’s about to be
|
| I can’t hear a thing
|
| Cause I’ve stopped listening
|
| I can’t hear a thing
|
| Cause I’ve stopped listening
|
| Every morning
|
| Since I was born
|
| It’s been hard to look in the mirror
|
| And see my face for the horns
|
| All the fun that the law allows
|
| All the fun but with half the meaning
|
| Come on over, I’ll show you how
|
| If you lived here you’d be home by now
|
| If you still lived here you’d be home now with me I can’t hear a thing
|
| Cause I’ve stopped listening
|
| I can’t hear a thing
|
| Cause I’ve stopped listening |
