Lyrics[]

Does anyone in here get hit with inside fever
So bad sometimes it's hard to move around?
They'll show you all the things you are not doing,
Instead of helping you they'll block ya out
And you're whining you shouldn't waste your morning,
But the couch fibers kept you inside
Said I'm so sorry I came in late this evening,
But all the clocks around the town had died,
And all the fruit stores' colors were so bright,
With couples smiling, cooking things tonight,
And what were all those troubles on my mind?
Oh, I took a walk


Well, uh, just what I need, right? The morning light
The room we all have, no more any,
I just listen tonight, and all we know,
Is all that I have, is in control


The room is still a little hot
And I don't break till a midnight shock
Are you coming out tonight?
Pretend I am? Well, I just might
The room is filled with ancient dates,
Where I've been and what I ate
Before I'm asked to throw them out,
I play with every little doubt
The room is filled with gummy bears,
Electric shavers, ingrown hairs
I keep the curtains tied in knots,
You sleep on cotton, rest in cots
The room is filled with catalogues,
Encyclopedias, books enough,
To keep me busy in the morning
Sun sets fast without a warning
The room is filled with cords and plugs,
Electronic translucent bugs
And what's that crawling all around?
What's that twitching, is it still alive!?
Is it still alive!? Is it still alive!?


Does anyone in here get hit with inside fever,
So bad sometimes it's hard to move around?
They'll show you all the things you are not doing,
Instead of helping you they'll block ya out
And you're whining you shouldn't waste your morning,
But the couch fibers kept you inside
I'm so sorry I came in late this evening,
But all the clocks around the town had died,
And all the fruit stores colors were so bright,
With couples smiling, cooking things tonight,
And what were all those troubles on my mind?
Yes, I took a walk
Oh, I like a walk
