Lyrics
Falling down the stairs, hell, better take the medicine.
Click crack click. Give myself a better sin.
Money in, money out, out of money I'm down.
There's me wondering where have all my friends gone.
Standing on a mountain, looking at the floor.
Waiting for the prizes and missing the reward.
Somebody tell me, what's it all about?
Somebody tell me, what is it all for?
Coming down, coming in, coming up for air.
Taking off, taking down, you could take me anywhere.
Churches, curtains, rowing in a boat.
Sitting in the dark thinking "Hell I can't cope".
Here's to the times when I didn't get the joke.
Somebody tell me, where does it all go?
Jellyfish, getting high, too many people.
Not being heard when I really really need to.
Hypnotise, analyse, looking for an answer.
Figure out the question and you're already half there.
Sometimes it feels like I'm only half there.
Somebody tell me, why do they care?
Thrown out, thrown up, thrown in the rubbish dump.
Schizophrenic, adolescent, think I found another lump.
Love me, love me, come on and love me.
I eat and I eat but I'm so damn hungry.
Somebody tell me, what's it all about?
Somebody tell me, what does it all mean?
Break up, break down, break in, break out.
Wino, psycho, write until the pain goes.
Bad dreams, old screams, bully you, bully me.
So long, so small. I swear to you I jumped that wall.
Somebody tell me, what's it all about?
Somebody tell me, what is it all for?
