Текст (слова) песни: Barenaked Ladies - Brian Wilson

 
Words and Music by Steven Page, 
 
Drove downtown in the rain 
Nine-thirty on a Tuesday night, 
Just to check out the late-night record shop, 
Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, call it insane 
But when I`m surrounded I just can`t stop 
 
It`s a matter of instinct, it`s a matter of conditioning,

Chorus 
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did 
Well I`m lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did

Chorus

Chorus

and though I was very heavy 
I floated `til I couldn`t see the ground 
I floated `til I couldn`t see the ground 
Somebody help me, I couldn`t see the ground 
Somebody help me, I couldn`t see the ground 
Somebody help me because I`m 
 
Chorus 
 
Drove downtown in the rain 
Nine-thirty on a Tuesday night, 
Just to check out the late-night record shop, 
Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, call it insane 
But when I`m surrounded I just can`t stop
