Lyrics:

I remember that house boat by the pool
'Yellow Brick Road' on the jukebox, that was cool
Now the sunburn stings and I feel like I was a kid
But I was a fool
Cause it all had strings attached
Right down to the myth they sold us in school

Everything orange and yellow
Back then we went down the canal by ourselves
Thought we had our own grip on life
But like the rope or the bell
We were already building a world for someone else
Yeah, we were already drinking the dreams of someone else

You weave the rope you're now pulling out
I keep thinking how can I just see it now
We've been riding that white wave of sound
In every innocuous spot on the dial
In every transmission of some actor's smile
We willingly rode the white wave down
We rode the white wave down

Wake up one morning
It's not fine
But you can sign at the line
Don't wanna be another radio tower in time
But you can resign if you like

You weave the rope you're now pulling out
I keep thinking how can I just see it now
We've been riding that white wave of sound
In every innocuous spot on the dial
In every transmission of some actor's smile
We willingly rode the white wave down
We rode the white wave down
We rode the white wave down
Oh, we rode the white wave down
