Whats The Frequency Kenneth
What's The Frequency, Kenneth? R.E.M
"What's the frequency,
Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not
up to speed I thought I'd pegged you an idiot's dream Tunnel vision from
the outsider's screen I never understood the frequency, uh-huh You wore
our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh
I'd studied your cartoons,
radio, music, TV, movies, magazines Richard said, "Withdrawal in disgust is
not the same as apathy" A smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth You
said that irony was the shackles of youth You wore a shirt of violent green,
uh-huh I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
"What's the frequency,
Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh Butterfly decal, rearview mirror,
dogging the scene You smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth You said
that irony was the shackles of youth You wore a shirt of violent green,
uh-huh I never understood the frequency, uh-huh You wore our expectations
like an armored suit, uh-huh I couldn't understand You said that irony was
the shackles of youth, uh-huh I couldn't understand You wore a shirt of
violent green, uh-huh I couldn't understand I never understood, don't
fuck with me, uh-huh
