Bass and Treble

When the cats sneak inside
Begging for some love rites
And daughters in tank tops still
Smoke at the bus stop
When the shutters are pulled down and the
Night falls over small town
When the good guys on the right track
Accelerate their compacts

Their mothers are already sleeping
And they're dreaming of the
Properties of other people
Hope is gleaming while their
Mothers are already sleeping

They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
More bass and more treble
They are stuck in mediocrity
Pinned to the beat
But miss out on the melody
They are stuck in the middle
But they need bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
More love and less trouble
They are stuck in mediocrity
Nailed to the cross that they
Bear voluntarily

When the head aches from alien
Experiments they're failing
To make up excuses for
Sedative abuses
And the powers that be are to
Blame for their misery
Tax policy's a scandal
They fly off the handle
Their fathers are already pissed
And they're wailing about
Everything that they have missed
And ambition is a word to be
Crossed out of their vocabulary

They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
More bass and more treble
They are stuck in mediocrity
Pinned to the beat
But miss out on the melody

They wake up in the
Morning and the
Mirror speaks
And the mirror speaks
They back down in the
Morning when the
Mirror speaks
When the mirror speaks
Sorry but you
Know you'll never be
With the guys in muscle cars and all the
Girls on TV
All you feel is
Envy, envy, envy
Envy, envy, envy

Their mothers are already sleeping

They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
They are stuck in the middle
But they need
Bass and treble
