Lyrics:

G C G In the tube where I was born C Bm I could have sworn C D There was so much to see C D There was so little to be G C G But I was free B7 World at my command Em Through the dots I ran Am D G Looking for a man who looked like me Em D And now it can be told Em D I'm a quarter of a century old G F G F G But I'm half a century high In the tube where I was raised I was amazed On the pictures I would lean That went flashing on the screen Oh, I was dazed But then my eyes were made hypnotized insane (?) Buried in my brain In a blinding blaze And now it can be told I'm a quarter of a century old But I'm half a century high In the tube where I was grown I was alone The figure on the floor (Laying on the floor) The dream behind the door (I'd lock the closet door) The sound was low Ballgames on the street Disappeared behind my feet Out of breath my heart would be To see another show And now it can be told I'm a quarter of a century old But I'm half a century high In the tube where I was made I was afraid Spinning through the space another scene, another face, Another shade Mirror of my mind On electric wheels of wine Living on the lines that were displayed And now it can be told I'm a quarter of a century old But I'm half a century high In the tube where I was fed I lost my head I watch the lives they led Watch
