Guided By Voices - The Disconnected Citizen Lyrics

Guided By Voices Lyrics

"The Disconnected Citizen"

Strolling through the radiated halls
The news, the names, the symbols smear the walls
Sprayed with every rule for both sides know
They were disconnected long ago

In the picture fighting for control
Slipped the noose, went looking for a soul
Destiny unknown

With accusations on the phone, it's fine
I'm glad you laid it on the line, all the time
When I could not tell
To which star attraction I befell
Was down in a darker stairwell
When shook half awake, I wanted out
In true devotion found the house
And I was collected

By voices dark and echoing my mood
Something like a psychogenic fugue
Had all the speech inflections, felt the rage
"Lectures later, just get on the stage"

Taking you down, I'm taking you down there
I'm taking you down
Taking you down, I'm taking you down there
I'm taking you down
Taking you down, I'm taking you down there
I'll show you around
Show you around, I'll show you around there
