Hypnotized

So that's how you found me
Rain falling around me
Looking down at a worm
With a long way to go
And the traffic was hissing by
And I was homesick and I was highAnd I was surrounded by a language
In which I could say only hello
And thank you very much
But you spoke so I could understand
And I drew a treasure map on your handAnd you were no picnic
Well, you were no prize
But you had just enough pathos
To keep me hypnotized, hypnotized
Hypnotized, hypnotized, hypnotizedAnd the map led to an island
In a sea of store-bought dreams
Where soulless singers sang
Over beats built by machinesAnd lovely girls were hovering
Above my head like gulls
With their long slender necks
And their delicate skullsAnd I was no picnic
No, I was no prize
But I had just enough sweetness
To keep you hypnotized, hypnotized
Hypnotized, hypnotized, hypnotizedSo that's how you found me
Rain falling around me
Looking down at a worm
With a long way to go
