public access late at night
living room bathed in an eerie light
transfixed like statues mouths agape
a vision in red on videotape

(G) genius, (A2) lunatic, (B2addE) hard to say
(resume pattern) a brand new song for a brand new day

single finger casio chords would drone
pared down lyrics cut to the bone
every single song sounds exactly the same,
if it wasn't so darn fascinating, it'd be lame...
 
prophet, nutcase  really can't say.
A brand new song for a brand new day.

an honest effort sincere yet naive
nothing hidden up that crimson sleeve
a rabid following grows by the week
lined up to peek at the circus freak

where did you get that great toupee
A brand new song for a brand new day.

sticks and stones break no bones
surrounded by a mindless pack of clones
and remember while you comment on his lack of class
who's taking a chance and who's sitting on their ass

Now the spotlight has gone away
a brand new song for a brand new day
and hear no more to our dismay
a brand new song for a brand new day
