 A man sits in a field - contemplating his crops

In his mind he travels all over the world



I see hairstylesstrange rituals

Scenes of beautyscenes that disgust me

I seeI see me

I felt awefelt disgust

I felt blissI felt lust

It's - not unusual



Saw people in a remote village

Proudly wearing their - digital watches

Saw a young indonesian girl

Possessed by the spirit of mutant ninja turtles

Saw palatial estateswith crumbling decorations

And human furniture



I saw hairstylesmeanwhile

There's a strange ritual

Got a strange ritualit's wearing me down



Saw a skyscraper made out of abandoned car parts

Saw a legislature of women

Courted by corporate lobbyists

Saw body parts made out of precious gems

And rare metalssaw a man on a barstool

Who hadn't moved - in 32 hours



He's lost in love

He's lost in love

All hope is gone



A french corporation that doesn't make anything

An ambulance driver - wakes up in a dairy queen

A town in which even the people who live there

Can't remember it's name



YeahI see

YeahI see - I see what you mean

YeahI saw hairstyles

Meanwhile

There's a strange ritual

He's got a strange ritual



He keeps to himself

Mmm - got a strange ritual

He keeps to himself

"excuse mesirexcuse mesir

You can't stand there

You can't stand there"

Excuse mesir (excuse mesir)

Excuse mesir (excuse mesir)

You can't stand there (you can't stand there)

You can't stand there (you can't stand there)



I saw things

Things out in the fields

I saw things

Things out in the fields

And I look at myself

What do I know? 



(I saw things come into my room)



I saw things come into my room

It's not unusual

I saw hairstyles

Meanwhile

There's a strange ritual

Got a strange ritual

He keeps to himself

Yeahwe got a strange ritual

We keep to ourselves

He's lost in love

He's lost in love

All hope is gone

All hope is gone

All hands on deck

All hands on deck

He's lost in love

He's lost in love

We're lost in love

We're lost in love

All hope is gone

All hope is gone

We've got a strange ritual

We keep to ourselves

We've got a strange ritual

We keep to ourselves

Keepkeepkeep ...

We've got a strange ritual

We keep to ourselves



We're lost in love

We're lost in love

We're lost in love

We're lost in love ...
