This Hyper World

(album: Dinosaurchestra - 2006)

Oh, for the first time in your life
You're asking me for my advice
But don't you dare think you're off the hook
Without me taking an honest look

You got nothing up your sleeve
You got plenty on your mind
And your mouth is getting dry
Because you're yawning all the time
And the days are getting longer
But your patience ticks away
And the wind could knock you over
If the walls weren't in the way

What can you do?
What can you do about it?
What can you do?
What can you do?

Oh, you've got to close your eyes
Strike that, you've got to open them
Oh, your thoughts are flexible
But somehow you have broken them

You're knocking at the door
Like you'd rather not find out
What is on the other side
Because it proves beyond a doubt
That you never had a clue
What you wanted all along
You attempt to hold your ground
Like being weak is being strong

What can you do?
What can you do about it?
What can you do?
What can you do?
Oh, I don't know. Run outside and twirl
Scream hello at this hyper world

Oh, run the rooftop marathon
Until your sense of up and down is gone
Discover ten brand new ways
To make tomorrow's weather like today's

You're stuck inside a pattern
You're stuck inside a loop
And you're stuck inside a pattern
You're stuck inside a loop
And you're stuck inside a pattern
You're stuck inside a loop
And you're stuck inside a pattern
You're stuck, so take a hammer to it

What can you do?
What can you do about it?
What can you do?
What can you do?
Oh, I don't know. Run outside and twirl
Scream hello at this hyper world

I only understand myself
Just me and nobody else
I only understand myself
Just me and nobody else

What can you do? What can you do about it?
What can you do? What can you do about it?
What can you do? What can you do about it?
What can you do? What can you do?
What can you do? What can you do about it?
What can you do? What can you do?

Oh, I don't know. Run outside and twirl
Scream hello at this hyper world
I don't know. Run outside and twirl
Scream hello at this hyper world
