Lyrics
Hey, the clock is ticking sideways
Down the intersecting highways
In suburban summer shine
And hey, all the stars are misaligning
All the ciphers mystifying
In suburban summer shine
The days look the same, but something's changed
We move from pane to window pane
This neighborhood's gone down the drain
And all the children play in cyberspace
They're running from the human race
And one day we'll all look just the same
And hey, the sky is moving like a freight train
Whirling circles 'round my right brain
In suburban summer shine
And hey, when you coming back to meet me
We can contemplate completely
In suburban summer shine
