  • I'm walking out in a force-ten gale
    Birds thrown around, bullets for hail
    The roof is pulling off by its fingernails
    Your voice is rapping on my window-sill

    Yesterday's headlines blown by the wind
    Yesterday's people in a scatterbrain
    Any fool can easy pick a hole
    I only wish I could fall in
    A moving target in a firing range

    Somewhere I'm not
    Scatterbrain
    Somewhere I'm not
    Scatterbrain
    Lightning fuse, powercut
