Lyrics for An Everyday Consumption Song

I asked him to take me upstairs where the music was loud He said things have changed and consumed, They belonged to the crowd My life's an echo, where do I start the remission To you and the world World sping round, they say the world spings round And I'm alive... And my head spins rounf, I said my head Spins round, I've been confined Feeling defying descriptionare troubling me I'm in a vaccum and nameless statistical seed My life's number seeking a factor to triple It's value to three Three times three equals a point Where rhere maximize me Three blind mice at an amazing price Come here and see... Here with the swindlers, I never make it, I met a date, My life is useless, Rupert refuses to be my friend We will think of you, think of you Rupert's confided to me, he got a boyfriend, I am out of place Faces keep on changing, nothing is stable I lost the race We won't think of you, think of you
