The Chameleons UK - Up the Down Escalator lyrics

I'm gazing up at the faces staring blankly at me I suppose it's just a sign of the times. They tell me that tomorrow will never arrive But I've seen it end a million times. I lost my direction while dodging the flak Give me a hint or something If I could freeze time at the flick of a switch I wouldn't hesitate No! There must be something wrong boys. Obnoxious action, obnoxious results From teachers who refuse to be taught. Distorted pictures and dizzy dizzy people Rush by me at the speed of though. And sit at their tables and throw us the scraps For Christs' sake leave us something Now they can erase us at the flick of a switch How long will it take Now! There must be something wrong boys They're dragging me down. Eden, there's no Eden, anyway. They sit at their tables and throw us the scraps For Christs' sake leave us something Now they can erase you at the flick of a switch How much longer must we wait Now! There must be something wrong boys They're dragging me down You either swim or you drown.
