It's Not

I keep going round and round on the same old circuit A wire travels underground to a vacant lot Where something I can't see interupts the current And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot And from behind the screen, it can look so perfect But it's not So here I'm sitting in my car at the same old stop light I keep waiting for a change, but I don't know what So red turns into green turning into yellow But I'm just frozen here on the same old spot And all I have to do is to press the pedal But I'm not No, I'm not People are tricky, you can't afford to show Anything risky, anything they don't know The moment you try, well, kiss it goodbye So baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator And let me fall into the dream of the astronaut Where I get lost in space that goes on forever And you make all the rest just an afterthought And I believe it's you who could make it better Though it's not No, it's not No, it's not
