"Video" Lyrics

Tell me why I feel so bad, honey
T.V.'s flat and nothing is funny
I get sad I'm stuck in a cone of silence
Like a big balloon with nothing for ballast
Labeled like a bottle for Alice
Drink me or I'll drown in a sea of giants

And tell me, "Baby, baby I love you
It's non-stop memories of you
It's like a video of you playing
It's all loops of seven hour kisses
Cut with a couple near misses
Back to the scene of the actor saying:
'Tell me baby, baby, why do I feel so bad?'"

Tell me why I feel so bad, honey
Fighting left me plenty of money
But didn't keep the promise of memory lapses
Like a building that's been slated for blasting
I'm the proof that nothing is lasting
Counting to eleven as it collapses

And tell me, "Baby, baby, I love you
It's non-stop memories of you
It's like a video of you playing
It's all loops of seven hour kisses
Cut with a couple near misses
Back to the scene of the actor saying:
'Tell me baby, baby why do I feel so bad?'"

Baby, baby I love you
Baby, baby I love you
But, baby, I feel so bad
