You hate You scream You swear
And still you never reach them
You curse
You try to scare
But you can never teach them
It's a dead-end street
They've tied your hands
And tied your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You know they're gonna get you
You try to break away
But they will never let you
It's a dead-end street
They've tied your hands
And tied your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind
They'll take your soul
You come You stay You go
It really doesn't matter
You've done it all before
By now they know the pattern
It's a dead-end street
They've tied your hands
And tied your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind
They'll take your soul
Know that you go,
you know they're gonna get you
Know that you go,
you know they'll never let you
It's a dead end street
They've tied your hands and tied your feet
And the street is narrow
The nowhere lane,
the nowhere train for
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl,
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind,
they'll take your soul
Know that you go,
you know they're gonna get you
Know that you go,
you know they'll never let you
Know that you go,
you know they're gonna get you
