You have clearly mistaken us for people who give a damn.
900 500
If you want our attention then send us a telegram.
000 700
How are we supposed to know what you are thinking?
900 500
Our mind is like a concrete boat and soon we will be sinking.
000 700
Look into our eyes and tell us what you see.

The lights may be flashing but they're flashing a vacancy.
We'll make you a promise that you will never have to think.
Just belly up to the bar and we'll buy you another drink.
You'll tell us your secrets and your deepest dark passions.
We'll arrange the financing and serve it up as the latest fashions.
Don't let us hear you say you've missed the main feature.
The mall is your church and the TV is your preacher.
We've got we've got Swanson's frozen alibis; we keep them in the freezer.
We don't count on justice because we find her such a teaser.
Of course we both know that it's only a formality.
Soon we'll own the franchise to every locality.
Then you will be our good son loyal and dutiful
And we will be your mothers and you think that we're so beautiful
Don't let us hear you say you've missed the main feature.
The mall is your church and the TV is your preacher.
