lyrics

Were you talking to me? Cause I was somewhere else.
(I was here but somewhere else in my head.)
If I had to be here I think I wouldn't survive,
so my absence is why I haven't fled.

In syndication I'll take my vacation.

I don't think that I am malfunctioning.
I'm getting paid to do a job.
I do it well while doing something else.
I'm in my dreams but wide awake.

Were there sounds going off
with flashing lights on the board?
I can tune it all out with a snap.

Nothing ever goes on that's remotely important
on that lit up international map

This is the console for missile launch control.

I think something might be malfunctioning
I'm usually not quite this annoyed.
I'll hit some buttons til these sounds go off
Then I can go back to my job.

No indignation in a life of relaxation.

Were you talking to me? Cause I was somewhere else.
I was here but somewhere else in my head.

Whether chopping up rocks
or lifting weights in the yard
or just listening to the guards overhead.

Incarceration; simple acclimation.
No indignation in a life of relaxation.

(In syndication, relaxation,
in a life of pure vacation,
for the length of thirty years duration.)
