Now you see it now you don't.
You say you'll leave it but you won't.
It's boring like a thunderbolt.
I tied my tie too tight, wanna get into a fight tonight?
That boy, his head ain't right.
We're just livin'-you don't understand,
in a wasteland, and that's the midwest, man!
All the lawns in suburbia can't keep me tame.
I'm restless and it's just no good.
I can't go nowhere 'cause my tank's on empty.
"Just get it over with!" is what they say to me,
and the future's just a big blank stare from the eyes of a soulless man.
We're just livin'-you don't understand,
in a wasteland, and that's the midwest, man!
All the highways and fireflies, they don't go nowhere.
Hey, don't mind me, man, I'm just driving around!
Everybody's got something to say
about being thrown away in the trash.
We're just livin'--you don't understand,
in a wasteland, and that's the midwest, man!
That's the midwest, man!
