I can't stop thinking about you and me
And Mickey Mouse and carburetors, soup and disappearing ink
It's been this way since midnight, now it's 2 or 3
Can't switch my brain off or find anything useful to think
The thoughts don't want to stay inside my head
They spill out and bounce about. They won't let me go to bed
I wrote this song, I couldn't make it make sense.
I wrote it wrong now I can't work out how it ends
I wrote it wrong and it makes no sense at all
It jumps and grinds around my mind, I can't explain it to the wall.
I don't know why I've built a six loop rollercoaster
On my beautiful road to the day
I play the same scene over and over and over
We don't work and you won't play
I can't stop thinking about love and war
Chinese food, electric chairs, extractor fans and circus freaks
I've had enough to think but there's still more
I think I've been awake 2 days, although it feels more like 2 weeks
The words don't want to stay inside my head
I'll spit them on this page and try to make them rhyme instead
I sit and chew my pen and watch you sleep
So still and beautiful, all wrapped up in the warm and deep
Let out a sigh so peaceful and serene
I'm so fucking jealous I just want to rampage through your dreams
I don't know why I've built a six loop rollercoaster...
I can't stop thinking about you and me
Superman and cashew nuts and soap and disappearing ink
Been this way since midnight now it's 2 or 3
Can't switch my brain off or find anything useful to think
The thoughts refuse to stay inside my brain
They spill out and dance about, they're slowly driving me insane.
Don'y know why...
