R.E.M. – What's the frequency Kenneth Lyric

What's the frequency Kenneth
is your Benzedrine uh-huh
I was braindead locked out
numb not up to speed

I thought I'd pegged you an idiot's dream
tunnel vision from the outsider's screen

I never understood the frequency uh-huh
you wore our expectations like an armored suit

I'd studied your cartoons radio
music TV movies magazoines
Richard said withdrawal in disgusts
is not the same as apathy

A smile like cartoon tooth for a tooth
you said that irony was the shakles of youth

You wore a shirt of violent green uh-huh
I never understood the frequency uh-huh

What's the frequency Kenneth
is your Benzedrine uh-huh
butterfly decal rearview mirror
dogging the scene

You smile like the cartoon tooth for a tooth
you said that irony was the shackles of youth

You wore a shirt of violent green uh-huh
I never understood the frequency uh-huh
you wore our expactions llike an armored suit uh-huh
I couldn't understand

You said that irony was the shackles of youth uh-huh
I couldn't understand
you wore a shirt of violent green uh-huh
I couldn't understand

I never understood the frequency uh-huh
