they want us to tell them
what to burn into the groove
we’re just gonna sit
and let them make the first move
the radio obsession
doesn’t mean shit to me
i don’t like first impressions
and i don’t watch much tv
i don’t want to think about it
who, what, when, or where
i don’t want to think about it
i don’t really care
i don’t want to think about
creating something new
i don’t want to think about it
because i’ve got much better things to do
i don’t want to think about it
i don’t want to see
i don’t want to know
the kind of fool they’ll make of me
the public gets what they deserve
not what they demand
unless we all decide to be a business, not a band
i don’t want to think about it
who, what, when, or where
i don’t want to think about it
i don’t really care
i don’t want to think about
creating something new
i don’t want to think about it
because i’ve got much better
things to do – just like you
it’s just an awful nightmare
and i get these awful headaches
and i can’t get any sleep at night
i don’t know what to do
i don’t know where to turn
or what to think
i haven’t got a clue
i don’t know what’s come over me
i’m getting dizzy
please will someone make it stop
