DUNES DELIRIUM - Dreamgirl and the Motorist
(c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 1999
We're stuck in the Bermuda triangle
Lapses of time are no longer
It's been 2.40pm for a week now
And i don't think we'll be leaving here anytime soon
Three o'clock is no nearer to us than the sun
Disposable ideas in dots per inch
Lie dormant in screensaver mode
We are alone
We are alone
It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999
It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999
We are alone in the confines of this dreaded space
It sucked us in long ago and bound us never to escape
Lips close on clenched teeth and we're tortured by continuous playlists
Our ship floats in and out of time in centimetres only
Damn is it 3 o'clock yet?
It never is, never ever
It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999
It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999
Consumerism keeps the feet fixed in the same place
Let the legs wobble with anxiety
And the mind wander around on another plain
All for that routine of day to day familiarity that is so kindly given to us
