Songtext
I had a wet dream in the desert
That everyone got thirsty and they didn't know why
Seems they've been lacking something in their lives
Waiting for rain to come down from the sky
So little lady's got a problem
Mister Uncle likes to touch her and she better not tell
Come on now, work it on out for yourself
When no solutions come, you can't ask for help
And I'd like to get into something you might understand
An ocean in teacups, a great big world with little hands
The TV show comes on tonight, but no one gets the station
Of my quiet desperation
Quiet desperation, yeah yeah
And if the next plane leaves for Dover
Tell them don't paint serenity on my face
I want everybody to know what went on here
I don't want no fairytales about this place
And I'd like to get into something you might understand
An ocean in teacups, a great big world with little hands
The TV show comes on tonight, but no one gets the station
Of my quiet desperation
Quiet desperation, yeah
Oh, desperation, yeah yeah
Quiet desperation, yeah yeah yeah yeah
And if the next plane leaves for Dover, yeah
Tell them don't paint serenity on my face
I want everybody, everybody, everybody to know
I don't want no fairytales, yeah, about this place
I had a wet dream in the desert
I saw no one got thirsty, I think I know why
They've been lacking something in their lives
Waiting for rain to come down from the sky
Oh, I'd like to get into something you might understand
An ocean in teacups, a great big world with little hands
The TV show comes on tonight, but no one gets the station
Of my quiet...
And I'd like to get into something you might understand
An ocean in teacups, a great big world with little hands
The TV show comes on tonight, but no one gets the station
Of my quiet desperation
Quiet desperation, quiet desperation
Of my quiet...
