The sun is burnin'
It never changes
The people look up
With nothing in their eyeballs

They stare at billboards
As if for guidance
There's something wrong here
I can't but my finger on

Same thing, same way
Everyday stupefaction, oh yeah

Drive out on sunset
But nothing's moving
The lights are green
Or is that my imagination

The people sit there
Cameras without action
I can't see the point
But I see the attraction

And the same thing, same way
Everyday stupefaction, oh yeah

We're gonna get clear outta this some day
Because the comfort's so appealing
The bodies so revealing just get to feeling
Like a wheel without traction
Stupefaction, oh yeah

I ask the landlord
How much you makin'?
Don't you get tired
Of just taking and taking

I ask the neighbor
Why are you so stupid?
Giving us those dirty looks
And tryin' to murder cupid

It's the same thing, same way
Everyday stupefaction, ah yeah

We're gonna get clear outta this some day
Because the comfort's so appealing
The bodies so revealing just get to feeling
Like a wheel without traction
Stupefaction, oh yeah

Turn up the TV
Turn up the radio
Turn up the volume
Nothing seems to matter

Lay back and slumber
Bring out the number
Ask the operator
What spell are we under?

It's the same thing, same way
Everyday, stupefaction, ah yeah
Stupid, stupid, stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)
Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)

Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)
Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)

Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)
Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)

Same thing, same way
Everyday, stupefaction, ah yeah
Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)
Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)

Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)
Stupid stupid stupid
(Hey, hey, hey)
