lyrics

Fricking

Ticking, ticking, ticking, ticking,
That’s the sound inside my brain,
All this ticking, all this fricking
Business driving me insane,
Pressure, pressure, worry, worry,
There’s always too much to do,
The only speed is hurry, hurry,
If you don’t produce, you’re through. . .

What the boss said, what the boss did,
Why’s her nose so out of joint?
With each hour I’m more exhausted,
Wondering: What is the point?
Why does life seem so relentless,
Isn’t there a moment’s peace?
Need to vent but here it’s ventless,
Here all I do is decrease,
Here it’s all a daily hounding,
Here anxieties abounding,
The only sound that is resounding
Is the sound of my head pounding!
Is the sound of my head pounding!
Is the sound of my head pounding!

Stop! Stop for God’s sake!

When in this daily living, when am I free?
Free to undress the very center of me?
Free to express myself, free just to be?
Free. . .
Where in this daily living, where is release?
Where is the Magic Kingdom where worries cease?
Where is there privacy, where is there peace?
Where?
Where lovers hold each other endlessly,
Feelings can revive,
There’s such a thing as ecstasy
And life comes alive,
And life comes alive!

Everyone is always rushing,
Frenzy is the common pace,
Everything is always crushing
Any sense of ease or grace,
The pressure in my head’s infernal,
Wound as tightly as a drum,
Banging with a hand internal
On my equilibrium. . .

Time for breakfast, time for dinner,
Kiss another day goodbye,
When am I the lucky winner?
‘Stead of just the one to cry?
Life is something of a despot
Ordering this daily grind,
Gee, who wouldn’t like a respite
And before I lose my mind?
Instead of all this tension ticking,
All this aimless double-clicking,
It’s my soul that life is nicking,
Fricking ticking clicking nicking!
Fricking nicking clicking ticking!

Stop!
