about

Track one of the album, a bouncing XTC-ish number. written by David in Toronto in 1995.

lyrics

It's no use, you say you can take it.
What next ail you go begging in the streets?
I don't know, how you can keep going
when the ground you're standing on is trembling 'neath your feet.

I pretend, because I can't face it?
Who said the party's coming to an end.
You noticed, you're worried
you say you can't help it.
Now is a good time to say good-bye to your friends.

But after everything you claim
you find the world's about the same as ever.
After everything's renamed,
you find the problem's just the same as ever.

Can't get away?
I've been there.
Can't get away?
Is there anywhere else but here?
Can there be anywhere else but here?

I don't know. I know you don't like it:
nobody makes you hero of the play.
Oh well. You'll have to get past it:
who wants to be in a fan club anyway?

I pretend, because I can't face it?
Who said the party's coming to an end.
You noticed, you're worried
you say you can't help it.
Optimist is lending to the pessimist again.
But after everything you claim
you find the world's about the same as ever.
After everything's renamed,
you find the problem's just the same as ever.

Can't get away?
I've been there.
Can't get away?
Is there anywhere else but here?
Can there be anywhere else but here?
