Liner Notes

Here's another album track that is gonna be pretty early so I hope I did it justice.
Lovely classic, hate life, I hate life everyone's favorite thing to say in life.
Hope you love life, I know the algorithm doesn't

Anyone else find it weird that detach is not spelled detatch or am I just being weird? It rhymes with batch and not bach after all

Lyrics

You walk into the no smoke zone
See the cigarettes adorn the floor
And you wish that they would listen
But you know they never will
You just keep on walking
And you think "This is not the place for me"
But you think all these 'awful' people
Are where they want to be

So is it normal? To want to detach
From this bad, bad world
From this bad, bad world

Now don't complain
If you didn't hear them speak
It's not my fault
That you were thinking out loud
And if you wanna be on time
You better hurry the fuck up
And if you wanna hear the story
You better shut the fuck up

So is it normal? To want to detach
From this bad, bad world
From this bad, bad world

You'll never know that you were wrong
'Till you know what was right
You'll never know what it ment
'Till you want to understand
And if you think you'll be afraid of the dark forever
You'll never turn off the light

You wish you could read their minds
To know how they get by
Well you'll find out pretty soon
That they think just like you
And that they want to get out of here
But they're left with no option
Stuck up at an auction
Just be glad they walked, now run

And yes it is, yes it is, yes it is
And yes it is, yes it is, yes it is

Detach your feet from office chair
Ankle up, you're dangling there
That's the only way some see
The only way out of there
Detach your feet from office chair
Ankle up, you're dangling there
That's the only way some see
The only way out of there
Detach your feet from office chair
Ankle up, you're dangling there
That's the only way some see
The only way out of there
Detach your feet from office chair
Ankle up, you're dangling there
That's the only way some see
The only way out of there
But you know better
Oh, you know better

That first verse is my favorite lyric, I can't pull out just one line. There are several reasons this reminds me of "This Must Be the Place" and Talking Heads, but is also sort of the opposite of that. I love the synth in the track and the way the bass hums along.
