Aimee Mann It`s Not Lyrics

It`s Not Lyrics

I keep going round and round on the same old circuit.
A wire travles
underground to a vacant lot.
Where something I can't see interrupts the
current.
And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot.
And from behind the
screen, it can look so perfect.
But it's not.

So here im sittin in my
car at the same old stop light.
I keep waiting for a change, but I don't know
what.
So red turns into green, turning into yellow.
But I'm just frozen
here on the same old spot.
And all I have to do is press the pedal.
But
I'm not. No I'm not.

Well people are tricky,
You can't afford to
show,
anything risky, anything they don't know.
The moment you try, well
kiss it goodbye.

So baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator.
And
let me fall into the dream of the astrounaut.
Where I get lost in space that
goes on forever.
And you make all the rest just an after thought.
And I
believe it's you who could make it better.
But it's not. No it's not
