Nobody worry 'bout me  
Why you got to gimme a fight?  
Can’t you just let it be?

Little daughter of mine, I can’t for the life of me  
Remember a sadder day, I know they say let it be  
But it just don’t work out that way when the course of a lifetime runs  
Over and over again

Each day’s a repetition  
Of the one that went before  
Like watching an old movie  
You can’t sit through anymore  
Why don’t you kick the habit  
And walk right out that door?

From all the repetition  
Day after day  
All the repetition  
It’s always been that way

It’s in your head, it’s in your eyes  
You’re boring and it’s no surprise

But if you’re bored then you’re boring  
The agony and the irony, they’re killing me

Your day is one of leisure  
In which you search for pleasure  
You’re bored when you’re adored  
You’re blasé

Power on the highway  
Data in my head  
Surfing on the network  
Part of me is dead

Every Home is Wired

Swimming in the circuit  
Somebody has expired  
This world will be the future  
Every home is wired
