Stuart Davis - Idiot Express lyrics

I'm supposedly a learned man from a school of higher thought But I pawned off my integrity, and look at what I bought A ticket for a single seat on a train that won't progress I'm just one of many guests on the Idiot Express I'm seated next to Alice, who's life has been obscene Domestic d**h is what she left by the station's pop machine She earned herself a scholarship for total lack of depth The committee was impressed on the Idiot Express Malcontents and martyrs navigate the rails Their inherent sense to trust pretense guides and never fails As we're all somebody's pieces in this twisted game of chess That's not something we address on the Idiot Express I applied with highest hopes I'd pa** their standard test "Are you stupid and naive?" they asked, and to that I acquiesced They were satisfied, I got a ride on the Idiot Express So I'll ride through life with Alice, sedated in our bliss Pathetic, paranoid and proud, we're thankful to subsist She spills her juice at dinner, and I drool on my vest But we're happy more less, on the Idiot Express All Aboard
