Nobody Told Me Lyrics - Flaming Lips

Everybody's talking and no one says a word 

Everybody's making love and no one really cares 

There's Nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs 

Always something happening and nothing going on 

There's always something cooking and nothing in the pot 

They're starving back in China so finish what you got 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Strange days indeed -- strange days indeed 

Everybody's runnin' and no one makes a move 

Everyone's a winner and nothing left to lose 

There's a little yellow idol to the north of Katmandu 

Everybody's flying and no one leaves the ground 

Everybody's crying and no one makes a sound 

There's a place for us in the movies you just gotta lay around 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama 

Everybody's smoking and no one's getting high 

Everybody's flying and never touch the sky 

There's a UFO over New York and I ain't too surprised 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these 

Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama
