The Ex & Tom Cora - State of Shock from the album Scrabbling At The Lock (1991)



I'm moving towards a state of shock
Repeats again of what's already been said
The same mistakes keep hitting us like booby trap blanks
We still learn nothing, living in Tinseltown

My apartment's on the umpteenth block
Some neighbours don't really treat me so bad
One used to live in a life-size tank
He thinks it's sad that this wall fell down

Outside they're selling pieces of rock
Well, i want nothing of this daily threat
Loads of that crap in the local bank
Easy targets for our wasteful clowns

But hey, one day i'm gonna find this precious frog
Might be my princess, maybe her name is Fred
Those stupid clouds will fade to reveal my thanks
This state of shock is a merry-go-round

State of shock been said booby-trap Tinseltown
Umpteenth block so bad life-size tank fell down
Bits of rock daily threat local bank of clowns
Precious frog named Fred my thanks go round

One might wander about in caverns of doubt
But why be afraid to find reasons to banquet
Sure, one can hide but there's a world outside
Must be pretty safe under a fire-proof blanket
