Dislocation Songtext / Lyric

I was an idiot in utero

somehow missed New Mexico

fell to earth in Baltimore I know

Now they lay case in empty rooms

birthday cards and red balloons

and me, I know, I know, I know, I know

I invited Johnny Legs and Jackie-O

Empty parties filled with people I don't know



I am rich and in the radio

I dream on my TV

dislocation, dislocation

I'm fading out in stereo

I don't remember me

dislocation, dislocation






telling lies and taking shots

getting laid in parking lots

getting high and getting caught, I know

All my broken paper planes

parachutes and window panes

I'm a shooting star gone novocaine, I know

So I write to all the girly magazines

Splash my passion on the pages in between



I am rich and in the radio

I dream on my TV

dislocation, dislocation

I'm fading out in stereo

I don't remember me

dislocation, dislocation



Rising from the afterglow

a dodo bird with polio

and me, I know, I know, I know, I know

I play with a rock and roll band on a subway

It keeps me far away from the gamma rays

We lit between the boom boom crash and the fade away,

I know

Come on wake up the congregation

we will see the light tonight

the spark the flash the bang the bite

I know, I know, I know know know know know know know



I am rich and in the radio

I dream on my TV

dislocation, dislocation

I could fade away in stereo

and you won't remember me

dislocation, dislocation

If they dropped a bomb on London

swallow LA with the sea

dislocation, dislocation

Say a prayer for Oklahoma

say another one for me

dislocation, dislocation
