There's a middle-aged woman, she's draggi ng her feet
She carries baskets of clothes t o a laundromat
While the Mexican children, kick rocks i nt o the street
A nd they laugh i n a language I don’t understa nd
But I love them, why do I love them?
So the neighbo rhood's dimmi ng, I smoke on the po rch
Watch the people as they pass enclosed i nside their cars
On their faces just anger o r di sappoi ntment
I start wi shi ng there was somethi ng I could offer them
A consolation, what could I offer them?
Well, they are sad i n their suburbs, robots water the lawn
a nd everythi ng they t ouch gets dusted spotless
A nd so they start t o believe they've n ot t ouched anythi ng at all
A nd the cars i n the driveway only multiply
Well, They are lost i n their houses
I've heard them si ng i n the shower
Maki ng speeches t o their si ster on the telephone
Sayi ng, "You come home, woman, you come here
Don’t stay so far away from me"
Thi s weather has me wanti ng love mo re tangible
Somethi ng I can hold
cause it’s getti ng cold
Let's hold up our fi sts t o the flame i n the sky
To block out the light that's reachi ng fo r our eyes
Cause it, cause it would bli nd us
Yeah it will bli nd us
Well, I've locked my actions i n the grooves of routi ne
So I may never be free of thi s apathy
But I wait fo r a letter that's comi ng t o me
She sends me pictures of the ocean i n an envelope
So there still i s hope, yes, I can be healed
There i s someone looki ng fo r what I've concealed
I n my secret drawer, i n my pockets deep
You will fi nd the reasons that I can’t sleep
A nd you will still want me
But will you still want me?
Will you still want me?
Well i said "Come fo r the week, you can sleep i n my bed
A nd pass through my li fe l ike a dream through my head
It will be easy
I'll make it easy"
But, all I have fo r the moment i s a song t o pass the time
A nd a melody t o keep me from wo rryi ng
Some simple progression t o keep my fi ngers busy
A nd wo rds that are sure t o come back t o me
A nd they'll be laughi ng
A nd they'll be laughi ng
My mediocrity, my mediocrity
Yeah they'll be laughi ng
Yeah they'll be laughi ng
They will be laughi ng
