Slow Nerve Action

The Flaming Lips · Transmissions From The Satellite Heart [1993]

It's all a waste of time again

She used to mow the lawn

She always wasted everyone

She always turned me on



Now she's turned a kind

That isn't so much in demand

And all us vegetables

Can waste our time on someone else



She had a cool invisible

Dog that she called Paul

We'd always sit around her house

Watching her feed the dog



Now she's got a man

Who don't like dogs, he just likes cars

She's just got a job

'Cause times got hard, so Paul is gone



Now she's turned a kind

That isn't so much in demand

All us vegetables

Can waste our time on someone else
