Everybody knows this is nowhere
Everybody knows this is nowhere
Start telling your friends
Start telling everyone you meet
You're going to disappear
You're getting out of here
Because this is nowhere
And you're never leaving
Say what you will but you're never leaving
You don't have to be mad
To work here but it helps
Smiling at the suits
Jumping through your hoops
Words! Alliteration
Helps you hide inside your head
Typewriter taps: use it as punctuation
To escape every grey degrading day of your life
Everybody knows this is nowhere
Everybody knows this is nowhere
Start telling your friends
Start telling everyone you meet
You're going to disappear
You're getting out of here
This is nowhere
And you're never leaving
Say what you will but you're never leaving
You don't have to be mad
To work here but it helps
Smiling at the suits
Jumping through the hoops
Alcohol! Abdication
Chocolate drop and coffee grains
Drink them dry: the words are punctuation
Giving space for things to grow
Detective book and religion
Side-step, dig a hole
And your friends: you use them as punctuation
To escape every grey degrading day of your life
Daddy's been fighting again
In for the lock-in again
Daddy's been fighting again…
