I Get No Joy

Military march in and out my head

Everything I did, everything I said

Took it to the arch for your happiness

I'll spend it like a lark, singin' for nothin'

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can't seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you're dead

I get no joy

Together and apart, do it all again

Right back to the start, straight until the end

I'm such a fool, got everything and you

Yeah, my heart is so blue, I'm singin' for nothin'

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can't seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you're dead

I get no joy

I swear that I don't pay attention

If I did, would intervention come to me

In a dream?

Or is that just what the directors

And the pills and all the deflectors

Would have me believe?

Psychotic, hypnotic, erotic

Which box is your thing?

But how many days a week do you feel

Electric, connected, unexpectedly affected

What do you need?

What do you need?

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can't seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you're dead

I get no joy

I know the sun will shine

Another day, another time

I know the sun will shine

Another day, another time

I know the sun will shine

I know the sun will shine

Electric, connected, unexpectedly affected

What do you need?

What do you need?

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can't seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you're dead

I get no joy

I get no joy

No joy
