Weather Report

[Verse 1]
It's 10:38
I'm running late
Already aggravated I am sad and frustrated
12:59
And everything's going fine
Skip the line and pay my dime
To buy a little sunshine

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And the world needs batteries
Just to give you what you need
And some pleasure
Sell a look like a vacation
And the plane-man makes the bird
And the bird no longer flies
Heavy with the weight of rage
Too many years inside a cage
Yesterday's great and tomorrow's full of sorrow

[Chorus]
Today, I'm gonna shut the world down
I'm gonna turn the switch off
Aiming for the clock
Sorry for the inconvenience

[Verse 2]
2:22
The sky is turning blue
Gotta walk the dog, gotta pay the bills
It's a pretty fine day for a barbecue
4:33
I see what's on TV
A new celebrity whose name is Monica Lewinsky

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And the world seems constipated
We have argued and debated
Seems America's political, jaded
And the boatman makes the fish
And the fish no longer swims
One too many oil spills
(Desire?) has gone and lost its will
Yesterday's great and tomorrow's full of sorrow

[Chorus]
Today, I'm gonna shut the world down
I'm gonna turn the switch off
Aiming for the clock
Sorry for the inconvenience

[Verse 3]
8:24
Can't think anymore
Too much information
Not enough communication
9:31
I'm not having fun
I'm sick of people, sick of places
Sick of all these ugly faces

[Pre-Chorus 3]
And my mind is claustrophobic
I've become agoraphobic
I am now petrified to go outside
And the life of mixin'
And the sun no longer shines
By a burn-out long ago
And all the stars have turned to coal
Yesterday's great and tomorrow's full of sorrow

[Chorus]
Today, I'm gonna shut the world down
I'm gonna turn the switch off
Aiming for the clock
Today, I'm gonna shut the world down
I'm gonna turn the switch off
Aiming for the clock
Today, I'm gonna shut the world down
I'm gonna turn the switch off
Aiming for the clock
Sorry for the inconvenience
