The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band - Insanity lyrics

See the young man standing on the corner with a smile on his face Not going anywhere, not hurting anybody, not in love with anyone You say he's not all there That's just your misguided vanity All these people are living in a world A lonely world we call insanity See the dog chasing the tin can wrapped around his tail See the man in jail You say they're wrong but you don't know That I stand elected which may have lived too long All this deep calm in his eye you wouldn't believe that he had set Seventeen fires in one day would you? 'How could you?' you'd say to him. Watch insanity sound the chimes flick the dimes Giving equal time to insanity Walk down and see a bunch of kids hanging round a parking lot carrying signs And all of a sudden the police cars off coughing in one spot A society's gotta snap some fingers doin' a dude with a lantern The lantern turns out to be a parking meter and the whole thing turns out to be world war three in cine scope on TV And the eyes of the popular turns on you saying 'Look at me' That's insanity. That's insanity.
