[00:22.91]Sometimes I feel really glad
[00:26.72]Looking back at the fun we've had
[00:30.46]But sometimes I want so much more
[00:34.15]Than this tug of war  I'm longing for
[00:38.27]Swinging scenes in magazines
[00:41.63]They're just distant dreams now
[00:45.02]
[00:45.96]Some say it feels really bad
[00:49.26]When those vicious tongues begin to wag
[00:53.47]But somehow all those paper lies
[00:57.03]Just anaesthetise the passers by
[01:01.09]The faceless clowns that put me down
[01:05.02]Don't bring me down
[01:07.08]I'm lost inside this brain drain  taking me over
[01:12.90]Somehow  I get to play the fame game
[01:18.60]Lost inside this brain drain  I used to long for
[01:24.84]
[01:25.40]A call to action  a strange attraction
[01:30.33]
[01:32.22]Somehow I'm not ready for
[01:35.92]Feeling bored and wanting more
[01:39.72]The radio plays like a uniform
[01:43.53]And dips you brains in chloroform
[01:47.46]They're so concerned  the spoken word
[01:51.02]Seems so absurd
[01:53.20]I'm lost inside this brain drain  taking me over
[01:59.15]Somehow  I get to play the fame game
[02:04.82]Lost inside this brain drain  I used to long for
[02:10.81]
[02:11.81]A call to action  a strange attraction
[02:15.68]
[02:16.55]It's never the way it goes
[02:19.23]Just in time  too late to know
[02:23.10]
[02:53.66]I've realized  I'm lost inside  I'm mesmerized
[02:59.34]I'm lost inside this brain drain  taking me over
[03:05.14]Somehow  I get to play the fame game
[03:10.82]Lost inside this brain drain  I used to long for
