lyrics

Everybody looks the same,
everybody sounds the same
Turn up the bass and listen,
turn up the bass and listen
How do you measure pain? The
things we do to hurt each other
Might as well talk to myself,
everybody wants
to be somebody
Turn up the bass and listen,
turn up the bass and listen
Everything is temporary,
so there’s no need to worry
Build yourself an ideal home,
a shelter from the cold
Always keep the illusion
intact, invisible,
a perfect match
Turn up the bass and listen,
turn up the bass and listen
Everything is temporary,
so there’s no need to worry
Throw away yesterday’s
dream, nobody
wants used items
You could be gone in a second,
the blink of a tired eye
Turn up the bass and listen,
turn up the bass and listen
Everything is temporary,
so there’s no need to worry
You shouldn’t worry,
you shouldn’t worry
Turn up the bass,
turn up the bass
Give me some bass,
give me some bass
Roll off the reproduction line,
a new model bright and clean
The years will eat you away,
wind you down to the death
Turn up the bass and listen,
turn up the bass and listen
Everything is temporary,
so there’s no need to worry
You shouldn’t worry, you
shouldn’t worry about a thing,
You shouldn’t worry
about a thing
Nobody listens to anything,
nobody listens to anything
You never listen at all at all,
you never listen do you?
you never listen do you?
