And in our very best get-up
We stepped down into the world
This city's soul was still up for grabs
For thos who′d fly across town in a taxi cab
To fly across town in a taxi cab
To fly across town in a taxi cab
These days I'm in the bubble
I'm living what they call a quiet life
I do no more than what′s expected of me
And I hope I will suffice
So take another soft pillow
Take your pill and drift away
This really is a good life, on the whole
And who am I to crave so much more?
It really makes no sense at all
Nothing would taste as good as you
I thought it would be a breakthrough
How could it ever go wrong?
A new experience is long overdue
It was the heady high I always aimed for
And all I told you then was true
That I could hide myself in you
Now, if nothing else then that′s what I'm gonna do
I take another soft pillow
I take my pill and then I drift away
To wake brain dead at the break of day
I used to have so much to say
It seems I′ve said it all
