The Chameleons - Up the Down Escalator lyrics

I'm gazing at faces staring blankly at me Oh, I suppose it's just a sign of the times They tell me tomorrow will never arrive But I've seen it end a million times I lost my direction while dodging the flack Oh give me a hint or something Now they can erase us at the flick of a switch They wouldn't hestitate Oh, must be something wrong boys Yeah, there must be something wrong, boys Obnoxious actions, obnoxious results Yes, teachers who refuse to be taught Distorted pictures and dizzy, dizzy people Rush by me at the speed of thought They sit at the tables and throw us the scraps For Christ's sake leave me something Now they can erase you at the flick of a switch Oh, there must be a way Oh, must be something wrong, boys Yeah, there must be something wrong, boys There must be something wrong, boys They're dragging me down Eden, there's no Eden Anyway They sit at the tables and throw us the scraps For God's sake, leave us something Now they can erase you at the flick of a switch Oh, there must be a way Oh, must be something wrong, boys Yeah, there must be something wrong, boys There must be something wrong, boys They're dragging me down And they're dragging me down And they're dragging me down You either swim or you drown
