Lyrics:
(From January 7, 1996 version)

Buried alive, there is nowhere to drive
These roads are infested with blessings
Walking the planks, the bloodshot banks
Tipping their hats to the lily-white hags
That's got nothing to do with you
Pointing a derelict finger at you
Pulling out electric chairs under you
Nowhere to hide your disappointment

Blind as a brain, soaking up pain
The paying of dues of the snoozing mirage
The hazard lights, the sweet parasites
Hiding the soul of the... [mumble]
That's got nothing to do with you
Pointing a derelict finger at you
Pulling out electric chairs under you
Nowhere to hide your disappointment

So don't be afraid, the piper's been cremated
??? that is withering
The paralyzed ghost burning the toast
Handing out eviction notices, I don't
That's got nothing to do with you
Pointing a derelict finger at you
Pulling out electric chairs under you
Nowhere to hide your dis...gust
