Portastatic - White Wave lyrics

I remember that house boat by the pool Yellow Brick Road on the jukebox Well that was cool Now the sunburn stings And I feel like I was a kid, but I was a fool 'cause it all had strings attached Right down to the milk they sold us in school Everything orange and yellow back then We went down the can*l by ourselves Thought we had our own grip on life Like the rope on a bell But we were already building a world for someone else Yeah, we were already drinking the dreams of someone else You weave the rug you're now pulling out I keep thinking, "How can I just see it now?" We've been riding that white wave of sound At every innocuous spot on the dial At every transmission of some actor's smile We willingly rode the white wave down We rode the white wave down Wake up one morning and it's not fine But you can recite every line Don't want to be another radio tower in time But you can recite every line You weave the rug you're now pulling out I keep thinking, "How can I just see it now?" We've been riding that white wave of sound At every innocuous spot on the dial At every transmission of some actor's smile We willingly rode the white wave down We rode the white wave down We rode the white wave down Oh we rode the white wave down
