The Noise Of Carpet Lyrics - Stereolab

I hate to see your broken face 

This world would give you anything 

As long as you will want to 

As long as you will want to 

I hate your state of hopelessness 

And that vain articulateness 

Your loser type wreck wanna be 

Not a pretty sight really 

In another world it'd be funny 

I hate to see your broken face 

A lazy life of fatal waste 

Of fashionable cynicism 

The poison, they want you to drink 

Oh no man, that's too easy 

Oh no man, that's so easy 

We weren't talking 'bout happiness 

Apply your leading potential 

To be useful to this planet 

The world would give you anything 

As long as you will want to 

As long as you will want to 

I hate to see your broken face 

A lazy life of fatal waste 

Of fashionable cynicism 

The poison, they want you to drink 

Oh no man, that's so easy 

Oh no man, that's too easy 

We weren't talking 'bout happiness 

Apply your leading potential 

To be useful to this planet 

The world would give you anything 

As long as you will want to 

As long as you will want to
