battery - Sebadoh

Something that concerns me

But I know not what to say

I really learned my lesson

Last time that I complained

I try not to waste it

I don’t want it anyway

Lost in translation

The mind, it just plays games

Well, I was born all tongue-tied

Never knew just what to say

Observing the reactions

So awkward in your ways

Shrinking down to nothing

I throw away my shape

I came to the conclusion

I never would feel safe

You’re just too fucked up to ever focus

All of that buzzing in your pocket

How would I know there’s no one home?

What makes a battery explode?

I came to fear the teachers

I came to fear the apes

Now you have lost your focus

And there is no escape

You’re just too fucked up to ever focus

All of that buzzing in your pocket

How would I know there’s no one home?

What makes a battery explode?
