"What´s the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not up to speed
I thought I´d pegged you an idiot´s dream
Tunnel vision from the outsider´s screen
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh I´d studied your cartoons, radio, music, tv, movies, magazines
Richard said, "Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy"
A smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh "What´s the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
Butterfly decal, rearview mirror, dogging the scene
You smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh
I couldn´t understand
You said that irony was the shackles of youth, uh-huh
I couldn´t understand
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I couldn´t understand
I never understood, don´t fuck with me, uh-huh
