lyrics

CIRCLE JERK (B. Cellini)

This time the time is getting shorter
I don’t know what I’m supposed to be today
This single circle’s growing larger
I can’t get out, I can’t get out!
I can’t get out!
But I’m a lonely man with too much company

I’d rather not expose my feelings
I’d rather not discuss my vital flaws
And so I ride around in circles
I’m jerking off without getting off
I can’t get it up
But I’m a lonely man with too much company

And it shouldn’t be this complicated
All the sounds of life get understated
But you didn’t hear a sound from me
No one ever heard a sound from me
No one ever heard a sound (‘cos my head was spinning ‘round)
And I never saw a thing (now I’m hanging by a string)

And now the sounds are getting louder
I can’t ignore the thing that speaks to me
And so renewed with inspiration
I flip the switch but it’s still wrong
I can’t get it on!
I can’t get it on!
No!
