Lyrics and translation

Original

Someone's got control of my mind!

Nothing that I do is my responsibility now.

No, wait, ignore the thing I just said, it wasn't -true and this is- -Look me in the eyeball.

-This is the real me talking.

-Look me -in the eyeball. -Look me in the eyeball.

I like modern jazz.

I like a place where the furniture's identically matched.

I like it when all the interior surfaces are colored the same.

-Look me in the eyeball. -This is really me now.

-Look me in the eyeball. -Everyone can see that.

I know what modern jazz is and I've got no kick against it, just as long as they don't play it, just as long as they don't play it.

Okay, go ahead and change my mind!

I'll probably say that it was my idea the whole time.

It was my idea, the -whole thing was really my idea. -Look me in the eyeball.

-This is the real me talking. -Look me in the eyeball.

Look me in the eyeball.

Lost in space, we're wide awake.

No memory, no aspirations, grasping at mistakes.

Don't you notice anything?

You haven't said a single word about my eyeball. Are you even looking? I thought for sure you'd mention it.

-Look me in the eyeball. -Are you even looking?

Look me in -the eyeball. -Look me in the eyeball. Eyeball!
