Paradise  Is exactly like  Where you are right now  Only much much  Better.    I saw this guy on the train  And he seemed to have gotten stuck  In one of those abstract trances.  And he was going: "Ugh . . . Ugh . . . Ugh . . . "    And Fred said:  l think he's in some kind of pain.I think it's a pain cry.  And I said: "Pain cry?  Then language is a virus."    Language! It's a virus!  Language! It's a virus!    Well I was talking to a friend  And I was saying:  I wanted you.  And I was looking for yov.  But I couldn't find you. I couldn't find you.  And he said: Hey!  Are you talking to me?  Or are you just practicing  For one of those performances of yours?  Huh?    Language! It's a virus!  Language! It's a virus!    He said: I had to write that letter to your mother  And I had to tell the judge that it was you.  And I had to sell the car and go to Florida.  Becaure that's just my way of saying (It's a charm.)  That I love you. And I (It's a job.)  Had to call you at the crack of dawn (Why?)  And list the times that I've been wrong.  Cause that's just my way of saying  That I'm sorry. (It's a job.)    Language! It's a virus!  Language! It's a virus!    Paradise  Is exactly like  Where you are right now  Only much much (It's a shipwreck  )  Better. (It's a job.)    You know? I don't believe there's such  o thing as TV. I mean -  They just keep showing you  The same pictures over ond over.  And when they talk they just make sounds  That more or less synch up  With their lips.  That's what I think!    Language! It's a virus!  Language! It's a virus!  Language! It's a virus!    Well I dreamed there was an island  That rose up from the sea.  And everybody on the island  Was somebody from TV.  And there was a beautiful view  But nobody could see.  Cause everybody on the island  Was saying: Look ot me! Look at me!  Look at me! Look at me!    Because they all lived on an island  That rose up from the sea  And everybody on the island  Was somebody from TV.  And there was a beautiful view  But nobody could see.  Cause everybody on the island  Was screaming: Look at me! Look at me! Look at me!  Look at me! Look at me! Why?    Paradise  Is exactly like  Where you are right now  Only much much  Better.
